Abstract
An implantable prosthesis and a method of attaching the prosthesis to a tissue structure disclosed. The prosthesis includes a body having a first side arranged to face the tissue structure having a defect and second side opposite the first side. One or more adhesive-filled pods are disposed on the first side of the body and selectively openable to supply an adhesive in between the tissue structure and the first side of the prosthesis body after the prosthesis body is positioned relative to the defect. The pods may be pierced, punctured, broken, and/or ruptured to supply the adhesive. A deployment device having a piercer may be used to puncture the pods.
