Abstract A new kind of soft tissue expander with exteriorized injection valve was reported. Two types of expanders were designed: one with single cyst, single tube and single chamber, and the other with single cyst, single tube but double chambers, i.e, an additional drainage chamber. The drainage orifice could be controlled by a valve. An animal experiment had been conducted, and the outcome suggested that the new expander could provide rapid expansion of the soft tissue, sufficient drainage of the expanded area. The bacterial culture showed that among the 42 samples obtained from the expanded cyst, only 3 were positive. (2 of bacteria and 1 of fungus), suggesting comparatively low cyst infection.
