Problems solved by technology

However, the use of biomaterials presents several additional problems
For example, it may be difficult to maintain the position of the biological material relative to the jaws of the staples before and during staple ejection
It can also be difficult to keep the biomaterial in the desired position at the surgical site after sutures are completed
Additionally, it can be difficult to fabricate biomaterials into the desired shape and thickness
Commonly used plastic and molding manufacturing techniques are often not conducive to fabricating thin biolayers for use with surgical staplers
The fragile nature of many biomaterials also makes them difficult to use in surgical staplers because they lack structural support

Abstract

Adjunct material to promote tissue growth is provided. In general, an implantable adjunct can be configured to be applied to tissue by a surgical stapler in conjunction with staples. The adjunct can have one or more medicants releasably retained therein that are effective to provide a desired effect on tissue in-growth in a predetermined manner. One or more characteristics associated with the adjunct can be altered between various implementations to promote organized tissue remodeling in a desired manner during wound healing, such as by encouraging tissue growth to be in a certain direction and/or by discouraging tissue growth in a certain area and/or on a certain structure.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates generally to adjunct materials for promoting tissue growth. Background technique [0002] Surgical staplers are used in surgery to close openings in tissue, blood vessels, catheters, shunts, or other objects or body parts involved in a particular procedure. These openings may be naturally occurring, such as passages in blood vessels or internal organs like the stomach, or they may be formed by the surgeon during surgery, such as by puncturing tissue or blood vessels to create bypasses or anastomoses or by Cutting the tissue during the suturing procedure. [0003] Most staplers have a handle with an elongated shaft with a pair of movable opposing jaws formed on the end of the elongated shaft for moving between the jaws. The nails are held and shaped. The staples are typically housed in a staple cartridge that can hold rows of staples and is typically disposed in one of the two jaws for ejecting the staples to the surgic...
