  • Patent number: 10220114
    Abstract: Described herein are tissue repair implants comprising at least a first layer of peritoneal membrane. The first layer of peritoneal membrane can be located adjacent to a second layer of peritoneal membrane and can be in direct contact with the second layer of peritoneal membrane. Additional layers (e.g., a third or fourth layer) can be included. Where more than one layer is present, the layers can be affixed to one another. For example, a first layer of peritoneal membrane can be attached to the second layer of peritoneal membrane by an adhesive bond, suture, or staple. One or more of the peritoneal membranes can be non-crosslinked, partially crosslinked, or substantially fully crosslinked. Any of the layers of peritoneal membrane may be attached to a wall (e.g., an interior or exterior wall) of an abdominal tissue by an adhesive, suture, and/or staples.

  • Publication number: 20100082113
    Abstract: Described herein are tissue repair implants that include a first or lower layer of peritoneal membrane and a support member. The implants can further include an upper layer of peritoneal membrane, and the support member can reinforce the two layers of peritoneal membrane. For example, the support member can be located between the lower layer of peritoneal membrane and the upper layer of peritoneal membrane. The support member can be encapsulated between the two layers of peritoneal membrane to attach the two layers of peritoneal membrane to the support member. The support member can be made from a non-biological synthetic material mesh with a plurality of openings extending therethrough. Either of the layers of peritoneal membrane and/or the support member may be attached to a wall (e.g., an interior wall) of an abdominal tissue. Either of the layers of peritoneal membrane may be remodelled by in-growth of tissue.
