BIODEGRADABLE SCAFFOLD FOR SOFT TISSUE REGENERATION AND USE THEREOF

摘要

The present invention relates to new reinforced biodegradable scaffolds for soft tissue regeneration, as well as methods for support and for augmentation and regeneration of living tissue, wherein a reinforced biodegradable scaffold is used for the treatment of indications, where increased strength and stability is required besides the need for regeneration of living tissue within a patient. The present invention further relates to the use of scaffolds together with cells or tissue explants for soft tissue regeneration, such as in the treatment of a medical prolapse, such as rectal or pelvic organ prolapse, or hernia.
