Abstract
A tissue closure device includes a first mesh, a second mesh, and a locking element. The first mesh is sized and shaped to be adhered to a first portion of tissue along a first edge of a tissue opening. The second mesh element is sized and shaped to be adhered to a second portion of tissue along a second edge of the tissue opening substantially opposing the first edge so that the drawing the first and second elements toward one another closes the tissue opening. The locking element is configured to draw the first and second mesh elements toward one another to a sealing position sealing the tissue opening and to lock the first and second mesh elements in the sealing position.
