A polymeric composition for use in medicine includes a hydrophobic bioabsorbable polymer admixed with a hydrophilic liquid polymer wherein the polymeric composition undergoes macroscopic phase separation on contact with aqueous media. The polymeric composition optionally includes a medicinal agent. The polymeric composition may be deposited as a permeable, semipermeable or occlusive irregular mass, regular mass, film or foam over a suitable surface such viable body tissue. Bioabsorbable implants formed from the polymeric composition may assume a variety of three dimensional configurations such as planar, spherical, cylindrical, rectangular and polygonal.
