Biosynthetics — Know your options
"[Biologic] materials come with only moderate durability, and at substantial financial cost. Slowly absorbable biosynthetic implants, as a class of hernia meshes, represent a possible cost-effective solution. In the final analysis."
Many repaired incisional or ventral hernias recur; thus, the primary objective of research and technological developments pertaining to these hernias has long been to minimize recurrences without increasing treatment-related complications.
Case Study: Proven Outcomes Reduced Costs for Complex Hernia Repairs
GORE® BIO-A® Tissue Reinforcement is an excellent choice in soft tissue repair, including complex hernia.
A Cost Comparison of Mesh Usage in Laparoscopic Paraesophageal Hernia Repair
The aim of this study was to compare costs of the GORE® BIO-A® Device, ALLERGAN ALLODERM Device, and ALLERGAN STRATTICE Device in relation to the outcomes in terms of length of stay and recurrence rate following PEH repair.
Biosynthetic Tissue Scaffold Recruits Progenitor Cells in Muscle Tissue Healing Model
This study demonstrates that the open, porous structure of the GORE® BIO-A® Tissue Reinforcement is able to recruit the Pax7+ cells residing in host muscle, a critical step in muscle regeneration.
GORE® BIO-A® Tissue Reinforcement is a three dimensional resorbable mesh which has demonstrated to be a ideal “scaffold” facilitating tissue generation and healing without the risk of a non-resorbable implant.
