Implantable prostheses and related methods are generally described. In some embodiments, the prosthesis may be used for soft tissue reconstruction. The prosthesis may be formed from a three-dimensional load-bearing porous scaffold having interconnected networks of pores, thereby enabling tissue infiltration and allowing native tissue, blood vessels, and cells to colonize on the scaffold. In some embodiments, the scaffold may be formed from a biodegradable material such that it may degrade during the tissue infiltration process, leaving native tissue. In some embodiments, the stent may be formed from a triple periodic minimum surface, such as a helical tetracosahedron, to achieve high compressibility and high porosity. The compressibility of the implant may simulate the mechanical behavior of native tissue and allow the implant to be delivered through a small incision site (e.g., with an implant delivery funnel).

This invention relates to an embedding guide that facilitates precise positioning and suturing, belonging to the field of medical devices. Each of the two arms has one end fixedly connected to a handle, and the other end of each arm has a needle hole penetrating through it. The other end of each arm also has a pointed tip. The advantages of this invention are: the two arms of the embedding guide can extend from a small incision to a deep location far from the incision, and are positioned on the skin surface by the two pointed tips to indicate the location for subsequent operations. The needle can then be inserted from the skin surface, with the needle hole used to determine the needle insertion position. As the needle passes through the two needle holes, the suture will sew up and catch the deep tissue. When the embedding guide is subsequently withdrawn from the incision, the suture on the skin surface is guided to the incision site for suturing, facilitating the suspension and lifting of deep tissue through the suture.
