BONE GROWTH STIMULATOR Abstract of the Disclosure There is disclosed an improved implantable bone growth stimulator having a titanium, bullet-shaped case and pre-stretched helical electrode leads. The leads are sheathed, and the circuitry in the case is potted in silicone elastomer. The shape of the case lends itself to long-bone applications. The potting material is ideal for presenting ionic contamination of -the circuit, while the metal case offers the requisite mechanical strength. The shape of the case facilitates removal during an explant procedure, and the pre-stretching of the leads prevents tissue damage at this time. The electri- cal circuit is a stacked assembly of components without a circuit board, which gives rise to the desired bullet shape of the case.
