Disclosed are biocompatible implants that combine a scaffold material for supporting long term repair of a soft tissue with an elongated member such as a suture for aiding in placement of the scaffold during a surgical procedure as well as for immediate mechanical reinforcement of a repair site. The components of an implant are combined such that a longitudinal load placed upon a composite structure can be borne primarily by the elongated member and the scaffold material is isolated from the longitudinal load. Thus, the scaffold material of a composite can be protected from damage due to applied loads and stresses during and following a surgical procedure.

L'invention concerne des implants biocompatibles qui combinent un matériau d'échafaudage pour supporter une réparation à long terme d'un tissu mou avec un organe allongé tel qu'une suture pour assister le placement de l'échafaudage pendant une procédure chirurgicale ainsi que pour un renforcement mécanique immédiat d'un site de réparation. Les composants d'un implant sont combinés de telle sorte qu'une charge longitudinale placée sur une structure composite peut être portée principalement par l'organe allongé et le matériau d'échafaudage est isolé de la charge longitudinale. Ainsi, le matériau d'échafaudage d'un composite peut être protégé vis-à-vis d'un endommagement en raison des charges appliquées et des contraintes appliquées pendant et après une procédure chirurgicale.
