Incisional
Hernia Repair
The choice of mesh in laparoscopic
incisional hernia repair is of paramount importance due
to the unique placement of the prosthesis on the inside
of the peritoneum.
The ideal mesh must be:
| • |
Biologically inert,
causing no adhesions to bowel Macroporus to allow ingrowth
of the Peritoneum
|
| • |
Strong, to accommodate the forces involved in ventral hernia repair . |
| • |
Thin, to allow easy passage through a trocar Motifmesh™,
manufactured by Proxy Biomedical combines each of these necessary
characteristics with the added advantage of the fact that
it can be fixed to the abdominal wall with either side. |
