A fiber-based surgical implant stabilized against fraying, includes a thermally crimped flat-knitted fabric of a biocompatible, optionally biodegradable, polymer material having a glass transition temperature or other thermally induced secondary conformational mobility threshold in the temperature range of from 20° C. to +170° C. Also disclosed is a corresponding fabric and methods of producing the implant and the fabric.

Fiber-based surgical implant and method of manufacture

Method of making a musculoskeletal tissue reconstruction implant by warp knitting an implant of a biodegradable polymeric material to form a porous matrix or scaffold having a tensile stiffness at least by 50% lower than the tensile stiffness of the musculoskeletal tissue the implant is configured to reconstruct.
