A bioabsorbable biomedical implant is disclosed. The implant includes a tubular scaffold comprising a plurality of interconnected polymer struts. The interconnected polymer struts defines a plurality of deformable cells. The polymer struts have an average thickness of no more than 150 μm. Methods for making the bioabsorbable biomedical implant, including the methods for making the fiber-reinforced polymer composite materials for the tubular scaffold, are also disclosed. |
