Abdominal hernia prosthesis TERAMESH ®

TERAMESH® Composite is a partially absorbable knitted mesh. Manufactured from approximately equal parts of absorbable Polyglycolic acid – co – caprolactone – 25 monofilament fiber and non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament fiber. Absorbable part of mesh is homogeneously absorbed in 90 – 110 days, after absorption of PGCL component, only PP mesh remains and provides maximum patient comfort. TERAMESH® Composite can be used in open surgery and laparoscopic operations. TERAMESH® Composite is sterilised by ethylene oxide. TERAMESH® Composite is biocompetible and has ISO 10933 biocompatibility test reports. INDICATIONS Sufficient Strength : Before absorption – rigid enough for easy manipulation After partial absorption – retains sufficient strenght for enduring normal abdominal pressure. Less Stiff : After partial absorption, lower risk of pain with more soft and pliable mesh. Minimized foreing body : Lower risk of long – term side effects due to less residual foreign body remained after partial absorbability. Its wide pore structure ensures maximum integration with the tissue and increases biocompatibility and ease of use.
