A biocompatible fabric comprised of a strong absorbable material and ultra fine permanent fibers which serve as a collagen support system for prosthesis devices and implants. The permanent fibers stimulate the growth of collagen but are too weak to offer the initial support desired. As the absorbable material dissolves, the collagen formed over the permanent fiber assumes the support role from the absorbable material. The supporting system is natural in appearance and motion without encapsulation or rigidity. The absorbable material can be overlaid with the non-absorbable fiber which after absorption leaves the non-absorbable mesh in an array. The fibers can be discontinuous, loosely woven or embedded in an absorbable material and can be patterned to provide various strengths and degrees of motion and movement. The materials can be coated or infused with materials to reduce infection, provide tissue growth, reduce scar tissue or other medicinal purposes. |
