ABSTRACT:
A tubular member (1) made from wire, preferably titanium wire, which is manufactured on a round knitting machine, is inserted into the cavity (3c) of a pressing tool (2) having a pressing mold (3b) and die (3a). The tubular member (1) is plastically deformed by the die (3a) introduced into the cavity (3c), so that the member (1) assumes the shape predetermined by the pressing mold (3b), and thus is transformed to produce a member (4) which can be inserted as a filling member (4) into bone cavities, for example as a medullary space barrier.
