BARD Mesh

MANUFACTURER
Bard, Davol

BARD Mesh was used by Dr. Irving Lichtenstein when he first

developed the first "tension-free" hernia repair technique
many years ago.

DESCRIPTION

ADVANTAGES

More than 45 years of clinical experience.

Can be tailored perioperatively and customized to any unique
situation.
Available in seven convenient sizes.
Precut BARD Mesh offers unparalleled convenience, while
reducing overall waste and operating time. Because the shapes
are precut, the need to trim the mesh perioperatively is

PARIETEX PRO-GRIP SELF FIXATING MESH

MANUFACTURER
Covidien
DESCRIPTION

Self-gripping, semi resorbable lightweight mesh available for
inguinal and incisional hernia repair.

In hernia repair, surgeons want to balance security and

patient comfort with ease of use. Parietex ProGrip self-
fixating mesh delivers all three. Its advanced microgrip
technology provides immediate fixation1 of the entire mesh
surface for a secure repair and even distribution of tension
for patient comfort. Designed for ease of use, the
resorbable polylactic acid (PLA) microgrips enable surgeons
to position and place the mesh in under 60 seconds2,
without the use of additional fixation1. Surgeons and
patients can depend on a secure repair with the potential
for greater patient comfort.

All of Covidiens Parietex products are created from a

macroporous polyester material which produce superior
cellular proliferation when compared to polypropylene
mesh in vitro.

ADVANTAGES

Immediate fixation of the entire mesh surface as opposed to

individual suture points on the peripheral edge
Substantially stronger incorporation than fibrin glue and
equivalent incorporation to hernia stapler fixation at five
days
Even distribution of tension across the repair rather than
focusing tension on individual fixation points
Reduces potential of chronic groin pain from sutures
entrapping nerves
Position and place in less than 60 seconds
Easy and secure positioning of mesh around the cord

NAME of the products

PROLITE Mesh

MANUFACTURER

Atrium
DESCRIPTION

As published studies have shown, not all polypropylene

mesh or highly porous mesh products perform the same.
It is also clear that not all meshes feel the same, handle
the same and most important, do not deliver the same
clinical outcome. Only one has been carefully engineered to
deliver the now proven performance results, preferred by
most surgeons and patients alike. Less pain, enhanced
patient comfort, fewer recurrences or complications are all
desirable characteristics that cannot be achieved with just
any prosthetic mesh implant.

Atrium utilizes a unique knit construction whereby its

monofilaments are aligned in parallell spaced angles,
to maximize material flexibility in two dimensions. No bulky
"rails" of compacted or flattened filaments, just a smooth
and very uniform open architecture. Next we developed a
proprietary material process to help "relax and stabilize" the
mesh polymer so it responds to flexing and handling without
classic "window shade" memory, commonly found with
more traditional, less flexible polypropylene constructions.
Surgical mesh and plug innovations evolved from experts in
biomaterial science.

issofter and more supple than traditional mesh products
and slightly thinnerthan Atriums ProLite mesh.
ADVANTAGES
For those surgeons who demand a thinner, better handling
and more flexible polyproplylene mesh, you need to look no
further than ProLite Ultra.

C-QUR FX Mesh
MANUFACTURER

Atrium

DESCRIPTION

Designed for open and laparoscopic hernia repair when a

tissue separating layer is not needed, C-QUR FX filament
coated mesh is the open pore ProLite family of
polypropylene mesh with an absorbable, 30-day, all-natural
pharmaceutical gradeOmega 3 fatty acid (O3FA) coating.
The open pores and filament coating help promote rapid,
more complete incorporation throughout. The O3FA
filament coating incites a less severe inflammatory response
when compared to bare polymer meshes allowing for less
fibrous formation and less rigid tissue incorporation.

ADVANTAGES
Atrium has carefully researched and tested C-QUR FX to
ensure the optimization of necessary mechanical features
for a strong, long lasting repair.
By all measures, C-QUR FX Mesh outperforms all bare
polymer products in terms of ease-of-use. The smooth
O3FA
coating
provides uncompromised
memory with significantly improved handling. The O3FA
filament coating also enhances tight trocar roll up
capability with minimal to no edge curl following
laparoscopic deployment. C-QUR FX Mesh lays flat and
glides along tissue for unmatched surgical convenience
and ideal anatomical conformance.

Preshaped Hertra mesh

MANUFACTURER
Herniamesh
DESCRIPTION

Rigid and semirigid preshaped meshes: Hertra 1, 2 and 2A

Rigid and semirigid preshaped Hertra 1, 2 and 2A meshes
are used to repair inguinal hernias in open surgery, and are
easily and rapidly positioned as a result of their rigidity and
shape-memory features. For this reason, Hertra 1, 2 and 2A

meshes do not require sutures or other fixing methods, and

are the only original means of repairing inguinal hernias by
the sutureless Trabucco tension-free method.


ADVANTAGES

Hertra 1 and 2 meshes are indicated for male inguinal

hernia repairs: the eccentric eye is in an anatomically
correct position for the passage of the spermatic cord, and
the prosthesis design is the result of hundreds of inguinal
canal measurements performed by Prof. Trabucco.
The Hertra 2A mesh is used for female or male inguinal
hernias in orchifunicolectomy cases.

MANUFACTURER
Herniamesh
DESCRIPTION

Rigid or semi-rigid preshaped meshes with eccentric eye,

used in male inguinal hernia defects in the presence of
significant destruction or weakness of the posterior wall.
This mesh is used with the preshaped Hertra.


ADVANTAGES
The T5 mesh is positioned below the transversalis fascia and
the distance between the T5 and the Hertra prosthesis can
be adapted in the most appropriate anatomic manner via
the feedthrough suture system created by Prof. Trabucco.

availing of following advantages:
-less risk of nerve entrapment;
-less risk to muscles damage;
-less postoperative pain;
-no limitation to physical activities.

NAME of the products

Flat rectangular and square mesh

MANUFACTURER
Herniamesh
DESCRIPTION

Flat meshes allow the surgeon to customise the

prosthesis, cutting and shaping it to suit the size
of the hernia and the area to be reinforced, so
providing maximum versatility and flexibility.
The various types of mesh available are the
result of combination of different wefts,
thicknesses and grammage; they are all
macroporous, and can be used to treat both
inguinal and abdominal hernias (umbilical,
epigastric, lumbar and ventral hernias), allowing
a wide choice of mesh and surgical technique.

ADVANTAGES

As a result of its rigidity and shape-memory

features, Hertra 0 mesh is ideal for open
surgery
using
the "Tension-free,
sutureless" Trabucco technique in obese
patients and in large eventrations;
Hermesh
3, Hermesh
4 and Hermesh
5 meshes adapt very well to any surgical
technique and can be used in laparotomy and
laparoscopic surgery;
Hermesh 6 is a light mesh;
Hermesh 7 is an ultra-light mesh;
Hermesh 8 is a quadriaxial woven light
mesh1. Its 16x40 cm size is especially
recommended for preventing incisional
hernias in high-risk patients when undergoing
laparotomy for liver or kidney transplant.
