In surgery, a sling is an implant that is intended to provide additional support to a particular tissue. It usually consists of a synthetic mesh material in the shape of a narrow ribbon but sometimes a biomaterial or the patients own tissue. The ends are usually attached to a fixed body part such as the skeleton.
