Abstract
A reconstruction implant ( ) of predetermined shape has a deformable outer envelope ( ) containing a filler liquid ( ) whose viscosity is substantially equal to that of water. The thickness of the envelope ( ) is sufficient to confer on the envelope a shape substantially identical to the predetermined shape in the absence of the filler liquid. The pressure of the filler liquid contained in the envelope ( ) is substantially equal to the pressure outside the envelope. The implant can be used as a testicle prosthesis.
