Abstract

An improved biocompatible composition consisting of physiologically stable microparticles carried in a lubricative suspension, solution, other fluid or gel is presented. The composition is intended to be delivered into the body through a small-bore needle, cannula, or catheter and to a tissue site for the purpose of augmenting the tissue site and surrounding area, thereby con-ectlng a defect, filling a void, or strengthening the support structures of the tissue. The particles are a hard, metallic substance and are carbon-coated.
