Parietex™ optimized composite mesh

Composite mesh

Parietex™ optimized composite mesh

Parietex™ optimized composite mesh is intended for the reinforcement of abdominal wall soft tissues where a weakness exists.

Description

Parietex™ optimized composite is made of a nonabsorbable three-dimensional multifilament polyester textile on one side and an absorbable, continuous, and hydrophilic collagen film on the other side. Parietex™ optimized composite mesh is offered in different flat sheet designs and proposed in three configurations available in various sizes.  Parietex™ optimized composite mesh minimizes visceral attachments.†,1-4
