Abstract
Abstract This invention relates to a method for preparation of a tissue graft composition from a segment of small intestine. A tissue graft composition is described which comprises the tunica submucosa of a segment of small intestine of a warm-blooded vertebrate wherein the tunica submucosa is delaminated from the tunica muscularis and at least the luminal portion of the tunica mucosa. The tissue graft composition has been shown to have excellent mechanical characteristics, as well as non-allergenicity and non-thrombogenicity in applications as vascular autografts, vascular allografts, and vascular heterografts.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
57 words
A tissue graft composition comprising the tunica submucosa, the muscularis mucosa and the stratum compactum of the tunical mucosa, of a segment of small intestine of a warm-blooded vertebrate, said tunica submucosa, muscularis mucosa and stratum compactum being delaminated from the tunica muscularis and the luminal portion of the tunica mucosa of said section of small intestine.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
57 words
A tissue graft composition comprising the tunica submucosa, the muscularis mucosa and the stratum compactum of the tunical mucosa, of a segment of small intestine of a warm-blooded vertebrate, said tunica submucosa, muscularis mucosa and stratum compactum being delaminated from the tunica muscularis and the luminal portion of the tunica mucosa of said section of small intestine.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
18 words
The tissue graft composition of claim 1 wherein the section of small intestine is excised from the jejunum.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
24 words
The tissue graft composition of claim 1 formed into a cylinder having a predetermined luminal diameter and sutured along the length of the cylinder.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
18 words
The tissue graft composition of claim 3 wherein the stratum compactum forms the luminal surface of the cylinder.
