1. A meniscus implant for replacing damaged meniscal tissue, comprising:
a substantially C-shaped porous body comprising an outer convex peripheral surface, an inner concave peripheral surface, an upper surface, a lower surface, and a cross-sectional area in a plane orthogonal to the lower surface which tapers from the outer convex peripheral surface to the inner concave peripheral surface, the porous body having a plurality of interconnected open micro-pores arranged to allow fluid to flow into the porous body and a plurality of open cavities spaced along the porous body for receiving meniscal tissue, wherein each of the plurality of open cavities penetrates through the porous body from the upper surface to the lower surface, wherein the interconnected micro-pores are open at the outer convex peripheral surface, the inner concave peripheral surface, the upper surface, and the lower surface, wherein the interconnected micro-pores are in fluid communication with the plurality of open cavities. |
