Inguinal hernia prosthesis AMPPMR series

Overview
Premisut POLYPROPYLENE MESH (Polypropylene mesh) is a sterile synthetic monofilament non-absorbable surgical mesh manufactured from knitted filaments of extruded polypropylene. The chemical composition is 100% polypropylene, using the same polymer as Premisut Polypropylene Suture. The knitting process interlinks fiber junctions and provides bi-directional elasticity for adaptation to physiological stresses.

Construction and properties

• Sterile synthetic monofilament, non-absorbable.
• Knitted from extruded polypropylene filaments with interlinked fiber junctions.
• Bi-directional elasticity allowing conformability to dynamic tissues.
• Can be cut to shape without unravelling.
• Fiber junctions are less susceptible to work-fatigue than rigid metallic meshes.

Availability
Available undyed in multiple pore sizes, thicknesses and dimensions suitable for a range of surgical procedures.
