Description
The Parietex™ composite ventral patch is designed to allow intraperitoneal mesh placement by open approach. The mesh is made of a non-absorbable three-dimensional monofilament polyester textile on one side and an absorbable, continuous and hydrophilic collagen film on the other side.
The Parietex™ composite ventral patch has a macroporous textile that enables consistent tissue integration. while the absorbable collagen film is designed to minimize tissue attachment to the mesh when in direct contact with the viscera.†, ‡,1-5
The Parietex™ composite ventral patch contains a unique fixation system that enables fixation on four cardinal points, reducing the risk of cupping effects and visceral entrapment that may lead to recurrence.4-7
† Based on preclinical animal and benchtop studies. Animal data and benchop studies are not necessarily indicative of human clinical outcomes
‡ Tissue integration is indirectly assessed in clinical studies by the reported low recurrence rates.
