| Popis: |
Ventral hernia repair (VHR) fixation techniques with current meshes on the market are prone to failure from intra-abdominal pressure spikes due to coughing or lifting, for example. The T-Line® Hernia Mesh (Deep Blue Medical Advances, Durham, North Carolina) is a new mesh with a novel fixation mechanism to enhance anchoring strength addressing hernia occurrence and recurrence. Used similarly to traditional mesh, the new mesh uses incorporated mesh sutures that are 15 times the surface area of sutures for fixation rather than monofilament sutures, providing ~275% stronger anchoring strength. The increased surface area of the mesh extensions decreases tension on the mesh and tissue and increases the strength of the repair overall. There is also the likelihood that anchoring gains strength over time as the extensions undergo bioincorporation. This novel mesh specifically addresses the most common complication of VHR and has the potential to significantly improve outcomes. |
