Abstract

La presente invención se refiere a implantes que tienen dos brazos y una porción de soporte configurados para soportar un tejido del cuerpo, tal como una uretra. Los implantes se sujetan en el tejido suave con soportes de tejido que tienen una pluralidad de lengüetas. Los soportes de tejido contienen una abertura a través de la cual una porción de brazo se mantiene. Un miembro de bloqueo se coloca dentro de por lo menos uno de los brazos para facilitar la fijación del brazo en por lo menos uno de los soportes.
