K201153 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the Tisuthes e-PTFE Surgical Patch. Classified as Mesh, Surgical, Non-absorbable, Facial Implants For Plastic Surgery (product code OWR), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Shanghai Suokang Medical Implants Co., Ltd. (Shanghai, CN). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on June 13, 2023 after a review of 1139 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the General & Plastic Surgery FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 878.3300 - the FDA general and plastic surgery device framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.

Device pattern: High-complexity regulatory submission. Elevated predicate reliance profile. The extended review timeline suggests the FDA required additional documentation before confirming substantial equivalence - a pattern common in complex or first-of-kind General & Plastic Surgery submissions.
