Abstract

To provide an embedded type expandable device.SOLUTION: An embedded type expandable device (100) includes a fluid reservoir (110) for defining a cavity, an expandable member (150), a pump assembly (130) configured to transfer the fluid from the fluid reservoir to the expandable member, and a filter member (120). The fluid is configured to pass through the filter member when the pump assembly transfers the fluid from the fluid reservoir to the expandable member.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
