ABSTRACT:
A vascular prosthesis is disclosed which excels in expansibility and allows satisfactory attachment thereto of cells and tissues. This vascular prosthesis is obtained by air-jet entangling a mass of yarns containing in at least a part thereof an elastic bulked yarn in order to get an entangled yarn furnished with fine crimps formed in fiber thereof, and fabricating a tubular fabric of the entangled fiber by one treatment selected from among weaving, knitting, and braiding treatments.
