Medical - Medical (general) / cosmetic breast surgery
Italian term or phrase: soluzione fisiologica
Hi,
I am working on a text concerning cosmetic breast surgery, which makes many references to inflatable implants filled with "soluzione fisiologica" via a tube with a valve attached to the implant. However, "physiological solution" does not seem right - is it saline (solution)?

Thanks to anyone in the know!
