The present invention provides an implant for positioning within a
particularly dimensioned body cavity. The implant is reversibly
deformable between an expanded state and a compressed state. The implant
is constructed and arranged for insertion within the body cavity when in
its compressed state, and pressurelessly conforms to the cavity
dimensions in its expanded state. Particularly, the implant is
characterized by spontaneous deformation to the expanded state in situ
within the body cavity while retaining and/or absorbing at least one
flowable constituent as a function of its degree of deformation.
