Figure 1 Gross appearance of tissue patch obtained by implanting a large-sized polyvinyl tube (L = 25 mm; ID = 7 mm) in the subcutaneous space of a rat and extracted after 4 d. The implant was completely encapsulated by a de novo tissue (A) after tissue that could be conveniently stripped off the implant to obtain a flat piece of tissue patch (B) after patch. Note the high vascularity of the encapsulating tissue.
