Bioresorbable wall reinforcement implants include a bioresorbable porous matrix based on a collagen sponge which defines first pores, a bioresorbable porous three-dimensional knit which defines second pores, with the matrix filling the knit and all the first and second pores being at least partially interconnected with one another. Tissue engineering supports including such an implant and uses thereof are also described.
