A tissue repair implant (1) comprises a first layer of peritoneal membrane (2), a second layer of peritoneal membrane (3), and a third layer of peritoneal membrane (4). The first layer of peritoneal membrane (2) is located adjacent to the second layer of peritoneal membrane (3) and is in direct contact with the second layer of peritoneal membrane (3). The second layer of peritoneal membrane (3) is located between the first layer of peritoneal membrane (2) and the third layer of peritoneal membrane (4). The first layer of peritoneal membrane (2) is attached to the second layer of peritoneal membrane (3) by means of an adhesive bond. The first layer of peritoneal membrane (2) is non cross linked or is partially cross linked, the second layer of peritoneal membrane (3) is substantially fully cross linked, and the third layer of peritoneal membrane (4) is non cross linked or is partially cross linked. Any of the layers of peritoneal membrane (2, 3, 4) may be attached to an interior wall of an abdominal tissue by means of a suture element, and/or a staple element. |
