Bioabsorbable Mesh for Hernia Repair: Know your Options
GORE® BIO-A® Tissue Reinforcement is intended for use in the reinforcement of soft tissue. GORE® BIO-A® Tissue Reinforcement may be used include hernia repair as suture-line reinforcement, muscle flap reinforcement, and general tissue reconstructions.Understanding Hernia Mesh Materials and Design, as Related to Clinical Needs
Join Howard Levinson, MD, FACS for a clinical discussion on hernia mesh, to understand materials and designs, and how those factors may relate to supporting clinical needs and patient outcomes.
