An implantable surgical mesh is provided, one embodiment of which includes a plurality of absorbable filaments, and a plurality of non-absorbable filaments. Substantially all of the plurality of non-absorbable filaments are substantially aligned in a single direction with substantially no cross-linking therebetween. The plurality of absorbable filaments are interwoven with the non-absorbable filaments to thereby form a bi-directional mesh structure prior to absorption of the absorbable filaments.
