Tissue repair fiber membrane, preparation method and application thereof, and tissue repair product
A tissue repair fibrous membrane, preparation method and application thereof, and tissue repair product. The tissue repair fibrous membrane is formed by interweaving fiber filaments having a diameter of 10 nm to 100 μm, and has pore structures formed by interweaving between the fiber filaments. The fiber filaments have concave structures, and have annular convex structures thereon in the radial direction of the filaments.
COMPOSITE SCAFFOLD FOR THE REPAIR, RECONSTRUCTION, AND REGENERATION OF SOFT TISSUES
A composite scaffold having a highly porous interior with increased surface area and void volume is surrounded by a flexible support structure that substantially maintains its three-dimensional shape under tension and provides mechanical reinforcement during repair or reconstruction of soft tissue while simultaneously facilitating regeneration of functional tissue.
MICROSTRUCTURED SOFT TISSUE GRAFT
The present disclosure comprises micropatterned fabric, meshes, textiles, and implantable devices which may include having one substrate including a mesh, a second substrate having a microstructured surface, and a fibrous layer disposed therebetween. The fibrous layer comprises a plurality of randomly oriented fibers. The devices having the microstructured surface may include a plurality of first level microfeatures and a plurality of second level microfeatures wherein the plurality of second level microfeatures are disposed hierarchically the first level microfeatures. Also disclosed are methods for making such micropatterned fabric, meshes, textiles, and implantable devices
SURGICAL TEXTILE WITH BARBS AND LOOPS
The present invention relates to a surgical textile (1) comprising an arrangement of biocompatible yarns defining a first face (2) and a second face (3) of the textile, the second face opposite the first face, the textile being provided at least on an area of a surface of one of its faces with a plurality of barbs (4) showing substantially a first length L1, measured perpendicularly to that surface, characterised in that said area of said surface is further provided with a plurality of loops (5), said loops showing substantially a second length L2, measured perpendicularly to that surface, where L2 is greater than L1. The invention further relates to a process for manufacturing such a textile.
Prosthesis for repairing a hernia defect
A prosthesis for repairing a hernia defect includes a patch body, a hoisting frame releasably attachable to the patch body, and a tether attached to the hoisting frame and having a free end extendable through the thickness of the patch body and accessible from the side of the patch body opposite to the side where the hoisting frame is releasably attached. The patch body and/or the hoisting frame includes a self-expanding support member. The hoisting frame includes a frame body and a translation component for directing pulling forces on the tether to the frame body.

The patch body and/or the hoisting frame includes a self-expanding support member. The hoisting frame includes a frame body with an outer frame component and a force translation component for directing pulling forces on the tether across the frame body. The outer frame component has a loop configuration to generally follow the patch periphery with overlapping end portions or a gap between free ends thereof. The force translation component is separable into multiple segments to facilitate withdrawal of the hoisting frame through an opening when released from the patch.
Medical device for breast reconstruction
Medical device made of biomaterial, for implant-based breast reconstruction, having a flat original shape of plane geometry, with sections, which sutured together define the front part, lateral, upper and lower of a box element, at least one of the aforesaid sections having at least one appendix adapted to define the rear part of the box element, said box element being adapted to wrap and contain integrally a breast prosthesis, said box element being configured to be interposed between the subcutaneous layer and the pectoralis major muscle and being suturable to the latter.
Patterned sling implant and method
Embodiments of elongate pelvic implants and methods for treating pelvic conditions, such as incontinence, are provided. The implants can include a tissue support portion, one or more extension portions and one or more anchors. The implant is constructed as a unitary sling implant. The implant can be constructed or formed in a generally elongate shape to provide a lattice support structure of repeated cells.
GENDER-SPECIFIC MESH IMPLANT WITH BARRIER FOR INGUINAL HERNIA REPAIR
Disclosed herein are gender-specific implantable mesh for inguinal hernia repair in a patient, comprising: a fabric layer comprising a side defining a surface area wherein the fabric layer is configured to enable tissue adhesion to said mesh; an anti-adhesive barrier comprising a shape configured to prevent direct contact between the fabric layer and both a spermatic cord and a genital nerve upon implantation, wherein the shape covers a part of the surface area on the side of the fabric layer, the part being less than 25%, and wherein the shape is oblique to a horizontally-oriented centerline and a vertically-oriented centerline; and a keyhole configured to fit the genital nerve and the spermatic cord of the patient therethrough without constriction, wherein the keyhole is oblique and inferior to a horizontally-oriented centerline and medial to a vertically-oriented centerline.
