Procedural Area: Inguinal Hernia Repair
Signal the body's natural restoration process.
Whether you're dealing with an open or laparoscopic procedure, the Biodesign Inguinal Hernia Graft is specifically designed for reinforcing the inguinal floor.
Biodesign is a scaffold that supports damaged tissue while signaling the surrounding area to restore itself. Five-year results have shown that Biodesign fully remodels into strong, vascularized tissue with natural feel and function.
Like all Biodesign products, the Biodesign Inguinal Hernia Graft is sterile, available in a variety of shapes and sizes, and can be stored for 18 months at room temperature.
