Abstract

Abstract A percutaneous implant comprises a subcutaneous part (1) and a percutaneous part (10), the former comprising a part consisting of a fibre mesh sheet. The fibre mesh sheet preferably is made of sintered metallic fibre, the metal preferably comprising titanium or the titanium alloy Ti6Al4V. The porosity of the fibre mesh sheet preferably is 70 - 90%. The percutaneous implant is suitable for application in soft tissue, also when no boney tissue is present to stabilize the percutaneous implant.
