Provided herein our graft devices for a patient comprising one or more layers, such as an inner layer and an outer layer. The inner layer comprises a first porous arrangement of fibers defining a first tube comprising an inner wall and an outer wall. The outer layer comprises a second porous arrangement of fibers defining a second tube comprising an inner wall and an outer wall. The second tube surrounds the first tube. A plurality of macropores extend through at least the inner and outer wall of the first tube. The inner and/or the outer layer can comprise a biofragmentable material configured to mechanically fracture into one or more fragments over time. Methods of creating graft devices are also disclosed.

Provided is an in-vivo indwelling tube having a high flap strength and passing smoothly through a conduit of an endoscope. A tubular member having a proximal side and a distal side; a proximal flap, including a base end on a proximal side and a free end on a distal side, on the proximal side of the tubular member; and a distal flap, including a base end on a distal side and a free end on a proximal side, on the distal side of the tubular member are arranged; where the tubular member includes a distal side first supporting member provided on a distal side of a midpoint between the base end and the free end of the distal flap or a proximal side first supporting member provided on a proximal side of a midpoint between the base end and the free end of the proximal flap.

According to an aspect, an inflatable penile prosthesis having an inflatable member; a reservoir configured to hold fluid; and a pump assembly configured to facilitate a transfer of the fluid from the reservoir to the inflatable member when the prosthesis is in an inflation mode, and facilitate a transfer of the fluid from the inflatable member to the reservoir when the prosthesis is in a deflation mode, the pump assembly including a valve housing and a reinforced pump bulb member.

The invention pertains to implants that facilitate tissue expansion while not substantially inhibiting normal anatomical movement. The implants may be made of different materials or made in different configurations such that such that a measured property at a first location on said implant is different than said same measured property at a second location on said implant. In one particular embodiment the implants may be a cosmetic penile implant.

An aortic stent graft includes a stent with a framework attached to a fabric tube by a plurality of suture ties. The fabric tube includes a plurality of discrete attachment areas that are at least partially surrounded by at least one permeable graft area. The fabric tube is one of a weave and a knit of thermoplastic yarn. Each of the suture ties associated with the discrete attachment areas at least one of penetrates through and encircles a respective one of the discrete attachment areas. The weave or knit of the discrete attachment areas is identical to that of the permeable graft area with an exception that a wall thickness of each of the discrete attachment areas is flattened relative to, and thinner than, a wall thickness of the permeable graft area.

A sound attenuation system can include a first end that can include a shaft and a flange, the flange can be coupled to the shaft, and a second end that can include a filter stem and a cap. The filter stem can have a hole. The cap can have a first position in which the cap occludes the hole and can have a second position in which the cap is clear of the hole.

A prosthetic insertion apparatus and related methods of use in delivering filled prosthetic bladders through a skin incision and into a surgical cavity or pocket. The prosthetic insertion apparatus imparts control and retention properties to a surgical professional such the prosthetic bladder can be oriented and manipulated into the surgical cavity without risk of inadvertent dropping of the prosthetic bladder and without imparting damaging stress or torque to the bladder. Suitable materials can be utilized that are selected as having advantageous properties including lubricity, rigidity, easily sterilizable, and high strength.

A paranasal sinus access implant device may include one or more material or geometric features that may enhance performance of one or more portions of the implant device, for example an exposed surface including an antimicrobial agent. Various products and methods may include or use such an implant device.

A delivery device can provide sequential delivery of a plurality of intraluminal devices or tacks held in a compressed state on the delivery device. Delivery platforms on the delivery device can hold a tack in a compressed position and have a unique shape, such as a non-constant outer diameter, an hourglass shape, a tapered proximal half, ridges, dimples, etc. This unique shape can be positioned between annular pusher bands that may also be radiopaque markers. In some embodiments, the unique shape is provided by a sleeve of flexible material with the unique shape surrounding a harder inner shaft. Further, the annular pusher bands can be made of wire or sections of material to increase flexibility while remaining radiopacity. A tack deployment method can include alignment of radiopaque markers on the outer sheath and the tack to be deployed prior to deployment.

According to an aspect, an inflatable penile prosthesis includes an inflatable member, the inflatable member having a reinforced portion; a reservoir configured to hold fluid; and a pump assembly configured to facilitate a transfer of the fluid from the reservoir to the inflatable member when the prosthesis is in an inflation mode, and facilitate a transfer of the fluid from the inflatable member to the reservoir when the prosthesis is in a deflation mode.
