PLCL Degradation Study – Swine
Abdominal Cavity Implantation Study

Objective of Study
  • To estimate the complete absorption period for PLCL
Observations
  • The surface and structure of PLCL film is complete and without obvious degradation pore in a week after implantation of composite mesh.
  • When implanted after a month, the PLCL film has been covered completely by the pseudo peritoneum, the film is still integrated but it became brittle and can be removed after stripping the tissue.
