Tissue reaction to a titanium-nickelide mesh implant after plasty of postresection defects of anatomic structures of the chest

Bull Exp Biol Med. 2012 Jul;153(3):385-8. doi: 10.1007/s10517-012-1722-8.

Abstract

We studied morphological features of the regenerate formed after postresection defect plasty of the pericardium, diaphragm, and thorax with a mesh implant made of nanostructural titanium-nickelide threads. The newly formed tissue grew through the implant with the formation of an integrated tissue regenerate ensuring anatomic and physiological restoration of this area.
