A clinically proven umbilical hernia repair solution designed for ventral, incisional, umbilical and epigastric hernia repair as well as trocar site closure.
The Ventralex™ Hernia Patch is a self-expanding polypropylene and ePTFE patch that allows for an intraabdominal, tension-free repair. This technique is designed to eliminate the lateral dissection typically required for preperitoneal placement, which may help minimize post-op pain. Deep placement of the prosthetic also allows for a strong repair and less chance of recurrence.
