REPAIR KIT FOR EXTERNALLY WORN SILICONE BREAST PROTHESIS

摘要

A kit for the repair of damaged prosthetic devices provides for theeconomical repair of such prostheses. The kit is directed primarily to the repair of externallyworn silicone gel filled breast prostheses, which prostheses are relatively costly and perhapsmore vulnerable to damage than other types. The basic member of the kit is a thin, flexibleadhesive backed tape of vinyl or other suitable material, which tape may be stored on a backingsheet. The backing sheets may be in the form of a roll, or alternatively several planar sheetsmay be included in a relatively flat container for persons who may not be able to convenientlycarry a bulky roll. Several shapes and sizes of tapes may be included a single kit, anddifferent kits may include different coloring, shading and/or texture in order that the user maymost closely approximate the proper coloring, shading and/or texture of the damagedprosthesis. However, each of the repair tapes in a given kit are of like coloring, shading andtexture in order that all repair tapes in that given kit will closely approximate the coloring,shading and/or texture of the prosthesis for which the repair kit was made.
