Abstract: A size adjustable cover used for soft tissue reinforcement which is adapted to envelop an implantable device, such as a breast implant, in a surgical application. The cover is formed using a circular two-dimensional implantable matrix material having an inner circle and a plurality of fringes which radiate circumferentially from the inner circle. The implantable device is positioned upon the inner circle, and the plurality of fringes are folded inwardly to form an overlapping implant pocket which envelops the implantable device. Each fringe further has a punched opening, allowing a loop of suture thread to link each fringe together. Certain fringes are excluded from the loop to create stabilization tabs which radiate from the inner circle and are attached to a site of host implantation to stabilize the cover and the implantable device within.
