Abstract

A biodegradable device for providing scaffolding for a trocar defect to promote healing. The device consists of an upper and lower scaffold, offset by a connector. The device is arranged so the distance between the lower surface of the upper scaffolding and upper surface of the lower scaffolding holds the fascia around the trocar defect while promoting tissue growth. The surfaces of the scaffolding in contact with the trocar defect are textured to maximize adherence to tissue.
