Abstract
Method of enhancing blood flow in tissue wherein an implant is non-ablatively introduced into the tissue in order to stimulate production of angiogenic agents by the tissue, the agents produced by the tissue are absorbed into the implant, where they are stored, and the stored agents are released back into the tissue when the production of agents by the tissue subsides. The implant is fabricated of a bioresorbable material and is resorbed into the tissue after the agents are released. In some embodiments, an exogenous angiogenic agent in included in the implant and released into the tissue along with the agents which are produced by the tissue and absorbed by the implant.
