Abstract

See full text

A flexible implant has a mesh-like basic structure of monofilaments, the diameter of which lies in the range from 0.02 mm to 0.30 mm and the bending elasticity modulus of which is smaller than 3500 N/mm.sup.2. The basic structure contains pores the size of which lies in the range from 1.5 mm to 8.0 mm over more than 90% of the total area of the pores. The bending force of the basic structure, measured in a three-point bending test with a span of 11 mm and normalized to a sample width of 10 mm, is 30 mN at most.
