    摘要: A biodegradable mesh implant for use in soft tissue repair, in particular surgical hernia, chronic wound healing or fistula repair, within the body of a patient is disclosed. The mesh implant includes a porous, hydrophilic biodegradable polymeric carrier mesh and fibroblasts on or within the polymeric carrier mesh. The carrier mesh includes a sponge-like structure with interconnected pores of different sizes, has a water contact angle of less than 75° and is made of at least a first polymer comprising polylactic acid as a main component.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to implantable encapsulation devices for housing a biological moiety or a therapeutic device that contains a biological moiety. Particularly, aspects of the present disclosure are directed to an implantable apparatus that includes a distal end, a proximal end, a manifold including at least one access port positioned either at the distal end or the proximal end, and a plurality of containment tubes affixed to the manifold and in fluid communication with the at least one access port. Additionally, the encapsulation device may contain a flush port and a tube that are fluidly connected to the manifold. The containment tubes may contain therein a biological moiety (e.g., cells) or a therapeutic device (e.g. a cell encapsulation member).

    摘要: The invention concerns medical applications and can be used in oncology, as well as in neurosurgery, traumatology, neurology, rehabilitation. The aim of the inventions claimed is the creation of a new method of local exposure on biological tissues and a new tissue-substitute applicator that benefits to both destruction and replacement of tumor tissue by restored biological tissue with no external exposure applied (alternating magnetic field, heating, etc.) The aim set is solved by using porous polytetrafluoroethylene as a cytostatic material. The aim set is also achieved by using porous polytetrafluoroethylene in production of a tissue-substitute applicator for treating or replacing tumor tissues. The aim set for the method of local exposure to biological tissues, including the placement of a tissue-substitute polymeric applicator in direct contact with the biological tissue to be exposed, is solved by using porous polytetrafluoroethylene for the constituent polymeric material.
