Title: Implant for tissue engineering
Usefulness: Implant for tissue engineering
Summary: A method is used for generation or regeneration of soft tissue, membranous tissue or an internal organ, in whole or in part, within a patient. The soft tissue including ligament, tendon and periodontal fiber is for hernia correction. The method is used for hernia repair, generating or regenerating cardiovascular tissue, and generating or regenerating skin. (all claimed)
Novelty: Generation or regeneration of soft tissue, membranous tissue or organ, in whole or in part, within a patient, by implanting bioresorbable implant comprising metal, semimetal, or alloy to induce fibrosis within the patient
