Ventralight™ ST Mesh

An extensively studied barrier with more than 10 publications and used clinically since 2007.

• Unique hydrogel barrier swells to minimize tissue attachment to the visceral side of the mesh
• Bioresorbable PGA fibers reinforce the integrity of the hydrogel barrier by binding it to the  polypropylene mesh
• The hydrogel barrier resorbs within 30 days providing visceral protection during the critical  healing period. 

• Over 40 years of proven results in hernia repair 
•   “It is completely inert, resists infection and sinus tract formation, has rapid fibrinous fixation, becomes completely incorporated into the host tissue.” 

• Bioresorbable PGA fibers reinforce the integrity of the hydrogel barrier by binding it to the polypropylene mesh

• Low profile design facilitates trocar deployment and mechanical fixation.
• Multiple shapes (circle, oval, ellipse, rectangle) and sizes ranging from a 4.5" (11.4 cm) circle to 12" x 14" (30.5 cm x 35.6 cm) rectangle.
• Easily cut to customize shape and size. The unique hydrogel barrier covers the edge of the mesh even after trimming.

• Uncoated lightweight monofilament polypropylene allows for complete tissue ingrowth with a low percentage of contraction* for a strong repair
• Hydrogel barrier minimizes tissue attachment to the visceral side of the mesh 
•  Lightweight polypropylene mesh may lead to decreased patient discomfort

The open-pore design of the uncoated monofilament polypropylene in Ventralight™ ST Mesh allows for:

• Fast tissue ingrowth
• Strong tissue incorporation into the abdominal wall
• A strong, long-term repair uncoated polypropylene allows for the majority of tissue ingrowth and strength to occur in the first two weeks after the placement of a composite hernia prosthesis.**
