Uncoated medium weight monofilament polypropylene mesh on the anterior side with an absorbable hydrogel barrier based on Sepra® Technology on the posterior side for laparoscopic ventral hernia repair.
Ventralight™ ST Mesh is an uncoated medium weight monofilament polypropylene mesh on the anterior side with an absorbable hydrogel barrier based on Sepra® Technology on the posterior side for laparoscopic ventral hernia repair.
Minimal contraction shown in preclinical testing compared to a leading macroporous absorbable barrier mesh
At 4 weeks, Ventralight™ ST Mesh demonstrated 42% less area mesh contracture than a competitive macroporous absorbable barrier mesh. Results were statistically significant.*
The open pore design of the uncoated monofilament polypropylene in Ventralight™ ST Mesh allows for:
Uncoated polypropylene allows for the majority of tissue ingrowth and strength to occur in the first two weeks after placement of a composite hernia prosthesis.**
