Bovine pericardium is a biological tissue derived from the sac surrounding a cow’s heart. Known for its strength, flexibility, and biocompatibility, it has become an essential material in modern surgical practice — especially in cardiovascular, vascular, and neurosurgical procedures.
The use of biological materials in surgery began in the 1960s, but bovine pericardium gained prominence in the 1970s and 1980s. Its collagen-rich structure demonstrated excellent mechanical properties, making it suitable for environments with high pressure and constant motion — such as heart valve replacements.
Over time, advanced processing techniques allowed the tissue to be purified, stabilized, and sterilized for safe and long-term use in the human body.
Processing Steps
Harvesting
Pericardium is collected from healthy, veterinary-certified cattle.Cleaning and Decellularization
Cellular components are removed to minimize the risk of immune rejection.Stabilization
The tissue is treated (commonly with glutaraldehyde) to preserve collagen structure and prevent degradation.Sterilization and Packaging
Final products are sterilized and sealed for storage, either chilled (+2°C to +8°C) or frozen (-80°C), depending on clinical needs.
