A buttress for use with circular surgical staplers that does not require adhesive to securely fasten the buttress to the stapler. Following cutting and stapling by the circular stapler, the buttress has an adaptive opening through its central region with a diameter smaller than the outer diameter of the stapler anvil. Because of relief features built into the buttress, the stapler anvil may be pulled through the buttress material without causing permanent alteration to the buttress. These relief features may be provided regardless of whether the buttress is made of inelastic or elastic materials. The buttress is generally circular in shape with an outer diameter sized to coincide with the outer diameter of the stapler body staple compression surface and the outer diameter of the anvil compression surface of a circular stapler with which it is used. Prior to surgical use, the buttress is attached to the stapler with disruptable portions extending from outer perimetal areas of the buttress.
1. A medical device adapted to reinforce tissue stapled together with a circular surgical stapler having an anvil and a generally circular cutting blade, the medical device comprising: an implantable buttress material adapted for mounting on said circular stapler; andat least one adaptive opening in
1. A medical device adapted to reinforce tissue stapled together with a circular surgical stapler having an anvil and a generally circular cutting blade, the medical device comprising: an implantable buttress material adapted for mounting on said circular stapler; andat least one adaptive opening in the buttress materialwherein a reinforcing portion of the buttress material is configured to remain stapled to tissue in a patient and an inner portion of the buttress material is configured to be cut away from the reinforcing portion by the cutting blade upon actuation of the circular stapler and cutting blade, resulting in a severed inner edge of the reinforcing portion and a severed outer edge of the inner portion, and wherein the at least one adaptive opening is adapted to extend to a central opening in said buttress material created by cutting of said inner portion away from said reinforcing portion with said generally circular cutting blade. 2. The medical device of claim 1, wherein the at least one adaptive opening is a slit. 3. The medical device of claim 2, wherein the slit has a straight form. 4. The medical device of claim 1, wherein the at least one adaptive opening has a form other than straight. 5. The medical device of claim 1, wherein the at least one adaptive opening is an opening having a geometric configuration. 6. The medical device of claim 1 wherein the at least one adaptive opening is serpentine shaped. 7. The medical device of claim 1, wherein the at least one adaptive opening comprises at least one hole therein. 8. The medical device of claim 1, wherein the at least one adaptive opening extends through the severed inner edge of the reinforcing portion. 9. The medical device of claim 1, wherein the at least one adaptive opening comprises a plurality of equally spaced radial cuts emanating from said central opening. 10. The medical device of claim 1, wherein the at least one adaptive opening comprises four equally spaced slits in a radial spoke pattern emanating from said central opening. 11. The medical device of claim 10, further comprising four radial cuts emanating from the perimeter of said buttress material. 12. The medical device of claim 1, wherein the at least one adaptive opening comprises a plurality of triangular openings. 13. The medical device of claim 12, wherein bases of said triangular openings are positioned to coincide with an outside diameter of said generally circular cutting blade of said circular surgical stapler. 14. The medical device of claim 1, wherein said at least one adaptive opening comprises a slit extending from said central opening to a perimeter of said buttress material. 15. The medical device of claim 1, wherein said at least one adaptive opening comprises a plurality of serpentine shaped cuts emanating from said central opening. 16. The medical device of claim 1, wherein said at least one adaptive opening eases mechanical distress in said buttress material.
