Intended for the reinforcement of abdominal wall soft tissue where a weakness exists, in procedures involving primary ventral hernia repair.

Functional description

Parietex Composite Ventral Patch is a dual facing mesh composed of a non-absorbable three-dimensional (3D) monofilament polyester textile for abdominal wall reinforcement (ventral defect) covered by a bioabsorbable hydrophilic collagen film to minimize visceral attachment. A fixation system composed of four flaps made out of monofilament polyester textile and two removable handles completes the device. This system facilitates placement and fixation of the mesh.
