Zusammenfassung:A bioresorbable device (2901) for implantation at a treatment site in the body of a patient, for draining fluid from the treatment site or delivering fluid to the treatment site. The device has a bioresorbable resilient truss (2915, 2916) for holding two tissue surfaces spaced apart, thereby defining a channel into which fluid from the treatment site can drain or from which fluid can be delivered to the treatment site, and a port in fluid communication with the one or more channels. The port is connectable to a source of negative pressure or positive pressure.
