Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a three-dimensional, degradable medical implant for regeneration of soft tissue comprising a plurality of volume-building components and a mesh component which is substantially made of monofilament or multifilament fibers, wherein each volume-building component is attached to at least one point on a surface of the mesh component, and wherein the projected surface area of each volume-building component, when projected on the surface of the mesh component, corresponds to a maximum of one tenth of the surface area of the mesh component.
Claims19
A three-dimensional, degradable medical implant for regeneration of soft tissue comprising:
- a first plurality of volume-building components;
- a first warp-knitted mesh component which is substantially made of monofilament or multifilament fibers;
- wherein each volume-building component is attached to at least one point on a surface of the first mesh component, and the projected surface area of each volume-building component, when projected on the surface of the first mesh component, corresponds to a maximum of one tenth of the surface area of the first mesh component,
- wherein the first mesh component has a bending modulus of less than 4.0 MPa.
