Abstract
Abstract An extractable device (10) is used to insert a medicinal filling into an animal tissue. The device comprises a filling member (20) and a pasty medicine. The filling member (20) is made of a flexible and hermetic wall (21) and is provided with a holding portion (22) and an injection port (23) via which the pasty medicine is injected into the holding portion (22) after the filling member (20) is inserted into the animal tissue. The holding portion (22) is provided with an opening (24) which is releasably lashed by one end of one or more threads (50,51) so as to make the opening leakproof. Upon completion of solidification of the pasty medicine in the holding portion (22) of the filling member (20), other end of the thread (50,51) is pulled to unlash the opening (24) of the holding portion (22), thereby enabling the filling member (20) to be extracted from the animal tissue so as to leave only the medicine in the animal tissue.

Independent Claim
169 words
An extractable device for inserting a medicinal filling into an
animal tissue, said device comprising: a filling member comprising a flexible and hermetic wall and
provided with a holding portion, an injection port at one end of the holding
portion, and an opening at another end of the holding portion; one or more thread, each having one end for fastening
releasably said opening of said holding portion in such a manner that said
opening is leakproof; and a pasty medicine to be injected into said holding portion via said
injection port of said filling member in the wake of a process for inserting
said filling member into the animal tissue whereby said pasty medicine
solidifies in said holding portion of said filling member; said opening of said holding portion being unfastened at the time
when other end of said threads is pulled by an external force, thereby
enabling said filling member to be extracted from the animal tissue so as
to leave only said medicine in the animal tissue.
