摘要: Some aspects of the present invention are directed to unique products and methods for treating fistulae other passageways openings in body. In some preferred forms, an inventive construct will include elongate graft body that incorporates a plurality sheet or sheet- like segments. The sheet-like segments, arrangements, be stacked generally longitudinal direction along length plug body, optionally, segments received over one more elements. Elongate elements this sort can take variety forms including suture, wire, filament, relatively thin-bodied member, although element somewhat heftier structure such as biodegradable non-biodegradable three-dimensional
