Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for producing a prosthesis comprising a knitted structure made in one piece, in which method a knit (1) comprising a base sheet (2) and a succession of perpendicular folds (3) is produced in a single knitting step, and said knit (1) is then cut on each side of said folds (3) in order to obtain said knitted structure.
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides implants suitable for hernia or prolapse repair, the implants including an implantable web including a combination of laid yarns and threading yarns and optionally a substrate. Methods of making such implants are also provided.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for producing a knit, said method comprising the following steps:—a) knitting first yarns of biocompatible polymer materials, a second yarn, which is a monofilament yarn, and a third yarn, which is a monofilament yarn, which are made of the same biocompatible hot-melt material, the diameter of the second yarn being strictly greater than the diameter of the third yarn:—said second and third yarns generating loops protruding from one face of said knit,—b) thermosetting the knit obtained at a),—c) placing the face of the knit with loops flat on a heated cylinder, resulting in i) the complete melting and elimination of the loops formed from the third yarn, and ii) the partial melting of the loops formed from the second yarn, said partial melting causing the rupture of each loop and, therefore, the formation, for each loop, of two barbs protruding outwards from the face of said knit.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a surgical textile (1) comprising an arrangement of biocompatible yarns defining a first face (2) and a second face (3) of the textile, the second face opposite the first face, the textile being provided at least on an area of a surface of one of its faces with a plurality of barbs (4) showing substantially a first length L1, measured perpendicularly to that surface, characterised in that said area of said surface is further provided with a plurality of loops (5), said loops showing substantially a second length L2, measured perpendicularly to that surface, where L2 is greater than L1. The invention further relates to a process for manufacturing such a textile.
