Bioresorbable protective sheet made from polylactide: a copolymer of 70:30 Poly(L-lactide-co-D,L-lactide). To be used as a pericardium replacement device in patients that may require re-operation within six months.
A flat or three-dimensional (3-D), woven/knitted or porous implantable device made of a bioabsorbable synthetic polymer [e.g., polyglycolic acid (PGA), polycarbonate (PC), polyglycolide or carbon fibres] intended for multiple defective tissue repair applications at different anatomical zones (e.g., breast, cardiac, abdominal) that includes an extra-abdominal application(s) [e.g., cardiac, plastic surgery, breast reconstruction]. It may also be used as a short-term scaffold for tissue regeneration. Disposable devices associated with implantation may be included.
