Abstract

The present invention provides a soft-tissue prosthesis which is formed from a tubular textile substrate and a liner. The liner is affixed to the intraluminal surface of the tubular textile portion of the soft-tissue prosthesis to form a fluid-tight barrier on the intraluminal surface of the prosthesis. The liner is preferably formed from a polymer. Thus, the soft-tissue prosthesis formed in accordance with the present invention provides the advantages of both a textile prosthesis and a polymer prosthesis.

Claims (14)

1. A soft-tissue, implantable, tubular prosthesis comprising:
a first component comprising a tubular textile substrate having an intraluminal surface; and a second component comprising a liner affixed to said intraluminal surface of said textile substrate said liner rendering the tubular prosthesis substantially fluid tight, said textile substrate including fibers having a melting temperature and bonding compatibility substantially similar to a material forming said liner.
2. A soft-tissue prosthesis as defined in claim 1, wherein the liner has a smooth intraluminal surface.
3. A soft-tissue prosthesis as defined in claim 1, wherein the liner is microporous.
4. A soft-tissue prosthesis as defined in claim 1, wherein the liner is formed from a polymer.
5. A soft-tissue prosthesis as defined in claim 4, wherein the polymer is selected from the group consisting of polytetrafluoroethylene, urethanes, silicones, polyester and mixtures thereof.
6. A soft-tissue prosthesis as defined in claim 4, wherein the polymer is expanded polytetrafluoroethylene.
7. A soft-tissue prosthesis as defined in claim 1, wherein the liner includes an inner surface and an outer surface defining a wall thickness, said wall thickness having a dimension of 10 to 50 microns.
8. A soft-tissue prosthesis as defined in claim 1, wherein the textile substrate is selected from the group consisting of woven, knitted and braided yarn to form a tubular structure.
9. A soft-tissue prosthesis as defined in claim 8, wherein the textile substrate is formed from a thermoplastic polymer.
10. A soft-tissue prosthesis as defined in claim 9, wherein the thermoplastic polymer is selected from the group consisting of polyesters, polytetrafluoroethylene, polyethylenes, polypropylenes and mixtures thereof.
11. A soft-tissue prosthesis as defined in claim 1, wherein the textile substrate includes at least one bioabsorbable component.
12. A soft-tissue prosthesis as defined in claim 1, wherein the textile substrate includes a colored axial yarn as a visual alignment aid during implantation.
13. A soft-tissue prosthesis as defined in claim 1, wherein the textile substrate is a woven single-velour tubular structure.
14. A soft-tissue prosthesis as defined in claim 1, wherein the textile substrate is a woven singular-velour tubular structure having a velour on an outer surface of said textile substrate.
