Abstract

A prosthesis and a method for securing a prosthesis at a treatment site are provided. The prosthesis includes a material portion. The material portion includes a liquid-impermeable material layer, a porous material layer having a pore size adapted for promoting tissue ingrowth, and an adhesive portion provided on the porous material layer adapted to secure the material portion to a site for at least 24 hours following implantation of the prosthesis at the site. In some embodiments, the prosthesis further includes a body.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A migration resistant prosthesis, the prosthesis comprising:
a material portion, the material portion comprising:
a liquid-impermeable material layer having a proximal opening, a distal opening and a wall extending between the proximal and distal openings, the wall being free from fluid flow through the wall between the proximal opening and the distal opening;
a porous material layer on an outer surface of the material portion, the porous material l…
