Gore-Tex Cardiovascular Patch

The Gore‑Tex cardiovascular patch is constructed from expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE), a porous and biocompatible material commonly used in vascular surgery. In this configuration 5 cm by 15 cm with a thickness of 0.6 mm the patch provides an ideal balance between flexibility and structural integrity. Its microporous architecture allows for tissue ingrowth and integration while maintaining long-term stability, which is crucial for cardiovascular repairs such as vessel reinforcement, vessel closure, or congenital defect reconstruction.

This specific patch, identifiable by the part number 1705015006, has a documented history of international export/import from the United States; for instance, shipments to India have been recorded at an average unit price of around $317, reflecting its specialized surgical application. Equipped with consistent pore size and high tensile strength, it resists dilation and tearing post-implantation. Surgeons appreciate its pliability during handling as well as its ability to conform to curved anatomical structures while retaining minimal memory (its tendency to "bounce back" to shape).

Clinically, ePTFE patches are used in a range of cardiovascular procedures—including repair of septal defects, arterial patch angioplasty, arteriovenous graft creation, and vessel augmentation—where a durable, non-resorbable scaffold is essential. The 0.6 mm thickness strikes a good compromise: thin enough to adapt to internal contours without adding excessive bulk, yet thick enough to offer long-term support against vessel wall stress. With GORE’s long-standing reputation in cardiovascular implants, this patch is a trusted choice among vascular and cardiac surgeons for reliable long-term performance.
