摘要:
A device for in situ treatment of vascular or cerebral aneurysms comprises an occlusion device having a flexible, longitudinally extending elastomeric matrix member that assumes a non-linear shape to conformally fill a targeted site. The occlusion device comprises a flexible, longitudinally extending elastomeric matrix member, wherein the device assumes a non-linear shape capable of fully, substantially, or partially conformally filling a targeted vascular site. In one embodiment the vascular occlusion device comprises a first longitudinally extending structural element having a longitudinally extending lumen and an outer surface; a second longitudinally extending structural element extending through the lumen; and an elastomeric matrix member surrounding the outer surface, wherein the second structural member does not engage or attach to the first structural element or the elastomeric matrix.

This invention relates to reticulated elastomeric matrices, their manufacture, their post-processing, such as their reinforcement, compressive molding or annealing, and uses including uses for implantable devices into or for topical treatment of patients, such as humans and other animals, for surgical devices, tissue augmentation, tissue repair, therapeutic, nutritional, or other useful purposes.
摘要:
A composite implantable device for promoting tissue ingrowth therein comprising a biodurable reticulated elastomeric matrix having a three-dimensional porous structure having a continueous network of interconnected and intercommunicating open pores and a support structure is disclosed. The support structure may be a polymeric surgical mesh comprising a plurality of intersecting one-dimensional reinforcement elements, wherein said mesh is affixed to a face of said first matrix. Methods of making and using the implantable device are also provided.
