More Information
Summary:This invention relates to a process for fabricating a graft for use in repairing abdominal defect/hernia, comprising the steps of collecting porcine cholecyst (gall bladder) from slaughter houses in a stabilizing agent, cutting open the cholecyst and freeing the same of its contents and flattening the same to obtain a flat sheet, subjecting the sheet to decellularization by scraping the numcosal layer and peeling off the serosal and muscularis layers to obtain a thin sheet of the decellularised cholecyst (d-PC), optionally augmenting the thickness of the scaffold.
