Abstract
Disclosed is a graft for implant after excision of the IPP (induratio penis plastica) plaque due to Peyronie's disease. The graft is formed by a loom woven fabric, with low porosity, deriving from a monofilament or multifilament yarn of fibers of resorbable polymer in PGA (polyglycolide).
Claims15
Bioabsorbable graft (1) for use in permanent implant after excision of a IPP (induratio penis plastica) plaque due to Peyronie's disease, consisting of a fabric (2) having a low porosity equal to or lower than 50%,
- said fabric deriving from a yarn of fibres made of a resorbable polymer of PGA (polyglycolide), having a thickness lower than 600 microns,
- said graft (1) having a planar flat form, the graft being a loom woven fabric made without reinforcements and/or support structure,
- said graft (1) in woven fabric is inherently capable without further modification of being impermeable to arteria blood and of being implanted without any deposition of tissue cells on its surface.
