TISSUE MASS TRAINING DEVICE, DEVICE FOR MASS TISSUE TRAINING, USE OF A TISSUE MASS TRAINING AGENT, AND DISORDER-RELATED TREATMENT METHODS, FABRIC. This invention relates to a tissue mass forming agent comprising a microporous bioinert ceramic material in the form of spheres having interconnected pores. Pores on the surface of each sphere are connected to pores within such sphere through blow holes and the internal pores are in turn interconnected, such that in addition to a high porosity, the balls have a high gas and liquid permeability. The mass forming agent is disposed within a syringe and is activated by impregnating the particulate traces of a bioactive resorbable bioceramic or by impregnating a patient's blood serum in situ. The particles are mobilized for injection by mixing the particles with a suitable carrier gel or viscous lubricating carrier liquid. Thereafter, the activated and mobilized mass-forming agent is injected into the tissue in the area to be treated or the mass formed such that the pelvic floor or urinary sphincter.
