Abstract

See full text

A biodegradable implant and a method for manufacturing one. The implant comprises a matrix component containing at least one biodegradable polymer or copolymer and a plasticizer that is adapted to substantially reduce the rigidity of the implant. The plasticizer substantially exists from the implant after coming into contact with tissue fluids of the organ system in such a manner that the bending resistance of the implant prior to the insertion of the implant into the organ system is substantially lower than after its insertion into the organ system.
