An extractable device is used to insert a medicinal filling into a
vertebral body. The device comprises a filling member and a pasty
medicine. The filling member is made of a flexible and permeable wall and
is provided with a holding portion and an injection port via which the
pasty medicine is injected into the holding portion after the filling
member is inserted into the vertebral body. The holding portion is
provided with an opening which is releasably lashed by one end of one or
more threads so as to make the opening leakproof. Upon completion of
solidification of the pasty medicine in the holding portion of the
filling member, other end of the thread is pulled to unlash the opening
of the holding portion, thereby enabling the filling member to be
extracted from the vertebral body so as to leave only the medicine in the
vertebral body.
