Abstract:
An exemplary embodiment provides a medical implant with implant surfaces that are exposed to body tissue when the medical implant is inserted into a body of a recipient. The implant has a micro- or a nano-sized pattern on at least a portion of the implant surfaces. Optionally, the micro- or nano-sized pattern may be a periodic (or “repeating”) pattern. Further, the micro- or nano-sized pattern may have geometric features, such as grooves, circles, triangles, rectangles, pentagons and hexagons.
