Access & Dissection Devices for Hernia Repair

The SpaceMaker™ Pro device is our all-in-one access and dissector system for inguinal and abdominal wall repair. Featuring a uniquely integrated solution that includes tailored cannulas and new anatomic balloons, the new Spacemaker™ Pro was designed to meet and address the challenges of laparoscopic hernia repair using the Minimally Invasive Component Separation Technique (MICST).

The Spacemaker™ dissection balloon uses a distention balloon (either oval or round) to separate tissue planes, forming a discrete cavity.

The Spacemaker™ structural balloon trocar consists of a blunt obturator connected to a handle and a valve body assembly. The valve body assembly contains an internal flapper valve and seal to prevent gas leakage when instruments are inserted or withdrawn. The Spacemaker™ structural balloon trocar includes built-in converters to allow insertion of instruments of different diameters than the main seal. In addition, the device has an external one-way valve for gas insufflation.
