Abstract
Elongated and high aspect ratio tissue treatment products are provided. Methods of making and using the tissue treatment products are also provided. The tissue treatment products can be used as implants that conform to the site of implantation and resist migration away from their implantation site in vivo.
Claims11
A tissue treatment composition comprising:
- a collection of loosely arranged elongated elements, each elongated element comprising a tissue matrix that has been at least partially decellularized, wherein each elongated element has a flexible three-dimensional structure comprising a length dimension, a width dimension, and a height dimension, and wherein each elongated element has an aspect ratio greater than 50:1, wherein the collection of loosely arranged elongated elements are configured to be implanted into an anatomical site such that the tissue matrix is in direct contact with surrounding native tissue thereby allowing cellular ingrowth and tissue integration.
