  • DEVICE AND METHOD FOR REPAIR OF UROLOGICAL STRUCTURES
    Publication number: 20140249365
    Abstract: A tissue engineering construct made from a nonwoven fabric. The fabric is made from first and second staple fibers. The first staple fibers are made from a first biocompatible, bioabsorbable material, and the second staple fibers are made from a second biocompatible, bioabsorbable material. The first material has a melting temperature lower than the second material. The fabric is formed into a three-dimensional construct suitable for the repair of urinary tract structures.
