Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to an implant for insertion into a patient. The implant comprises a plurality of unit cells arranged to form a three-dimensional lattice structure, the three-dimensional structure comprising a resting volume of the implant. The plurality of unit cells are arranged to form a porous network of the three-dimensional structure, and wherein the three-dimensional structure is a reversibly compressible three-dimensional structure, wherein a bulk porosity of the three-dimensional structure of the implant is at least 50%. Also disclosed is a method of tissue reconstruction or tissue augmentation. The method comprises implanting into the body of a subject an implant of the disclosure.

Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to a three-dimensional implant for tissue reconstruction or tissue augmentation for insertion into a patient. The implant comprises a plurality of strands forming a three-dimensional structure, which comprises a plurality of hollow channels. Each hollow channel comprises a plurality of sidewalls. A sidewall comprises a plurality of strand segments and a plurality of gaps arranged alternatingly so that a gap is formed between adjacent strand segments of the sidewall. The gap comprises a gap length (gl) and a resting gap height (gh). The plurality of gaps are reversibly expandable gaps. Adjacent strand segments comprise a deflection capability (?) based on an object to be received by the reversibly expandable gap. A radius (R) of the plurality of strands and a gap lengths (gl) of a reversibly expandable gap is based on a yield strength (?yield), the elastic modulus (E) of the material and a deflection capability ? of the adjacent strand segments forming the reversibly expandable gap.
