Abstract

The present invention relates to implantable devices made from expanded polytetrafluoroethylene having improved ability to bind with body tissues, higher resistance to suture leakage and enhanced blood tightness. More specifically, the present invention relates to an implantable prosthesis comprising an expanded polytetraethylene member having pores present in its wall structure wherein said pores contain a solid insoluble biocompatible, biodegradable material of natural origin. A process of preparing said prostheses is also disclosed.
