The structure for in vivo implantation comprises a porous element defining a pad and a stem extending from the central portion of the pad. At least a substantial portion of the pad and at least a portion of the stem are of a porous material which promotes living tissue to grow into the pores of the material when implanted to secure the structure in the implanted position. The structure is adapted to be implanted in place of at least a portion of the bony chain of the middle ear, to serve as a plug for a tube, or to serve as an implant electrode. |
