A new mesh design for plug and patch groin hernia repair: Parietene®PP

Abstract

Plug and patch hernioplasty is a technique showing very good results. Actually some criticisms mainly concern the amount of prosthetic material and the shrinkage of the plug resulting in recurrence of hernia, groin pain, and/or migration.

The new tridimensional mesh Parietene® PP allows to achieve a plug and patch hernioplasty, without any risk of plug migration.

The Parietene® PP hernia repair in simple and easy to learn. Preliminary results are very satisfactory and comparable with the best outcome from mesh plug repair, without any risk of plug migration.
