Injectable polymeric microspheres with X-ray visibility. Preparation, properties, and potential utility as new traceable bulking agents.

Abstract：

:The copolymer of methyl methacrylate (MMA) and 2-[2',3',5'-triiodobenzoyl]oxoethyl methacrylate (1), ratio 3:1 (mass:mass), was prepared via a free-radical polymerization in bulk. The copolymer (M(w) = 97.8 kD and M(n) = 41.5 kD) was dissolved in chloroform and subsequently transformed into beads with a diameter in the micrometer range, using a solvent evaporation technique. The resulting microbeads were characterized by different techniques, including NMR spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, gel permeation chromatography, and scanning electron microscopy. The latter technique was used as the basis for statistical analysis of the bead size. Typically, an average diameter of 96 microm and a standard deviation of 21 microm were obtained. The beads were also subjected to some preliminary tests regarding cytotoxicity. The copolymer of MMA and 1 contains covalently bound iodine. Therefore, the material is intrinsically radiopaque, i.e., capable of absorbing X-radiation while no contrast additive is needed. Our interest in these microspheres stems primarily from their possible utility as injectable and afterward traceable (radiopaque) bulking agents, e.g., for use in urology for the treatment of female stress incontinence due to sphincter deficiency. As a first test into this direction, a sample of the microbeads was mixed with ethylene glycol, and the resulting suspension was studied with respect to injectability and radiopacity. The results suggest that the radiopaque microbeads may provide access to improved bulking agents. Further modification of the surface may be necessary in order to suppress the migratory aptitude of the radiopaque polymeric microspheres in vivo.
