How and why is the Keller FunnelTM used?

Once the implant is placed inside the funnel, the surgeon places the small distal end into the prepared breast pocket and using a pushing/squeezing motion easily propels the implant into place. There are many reasons surgeons may want to use the Keller FunnelTM; they include: employs a no-touch delivery technique; decreases surgery time and physician fatigue; limits local stress on implant shell which may lead to rupture; reduces incision lengths; and lessens trauma to patient tissue.
