Omyra® Mesh

Prevention means comfort – reducing adhesions, impairing bacterial growth

Omyra® Mesh brings a new concept for hernia repair within the antiadhesive mesh group. It is a film of condensed polytetrafluoroethylene (cPTFE) with very low density (0.9 g/cm3) and a macroporous star-shaped structure (2.4 mm). Omyra® Mesh is the first mesh in a monolayer, non-coated format which has antiadhesive and bacterial resistant properties. The cPTFE material improves the adhesion prevention features of the traditional expanded PTFE, whereas the star-macroporous structures enhance a fast tissue integration like the one achieved with polypropylene meshes. Furthermore, the transparent monolayer that Omyra® Mesh provides, offers excellent handling, especially in laparoscopic procedures.

Indication
  • IPOM: Intraperitoneal onlay mesh hernia repair (open and laparoscopic) for incisional or inguinal hernia
  • Inguinal hernia for patients who are allergic to polypropylene
  • Abdominal wall reconstruction and substitution
  • Compartment syndrome disease
  • Chest wall reconstruction
Advantages
  • Highly biocompatible with star pore structures
  • Macropores to allow an excellent tissue integration
  • Fast neo-peritoneum formation covering the mesh
  • Impairment of bacterial growth
  • Reduction of adhesion formation
  • Condensed PTFE
  • Transparent and tailorable ensuring an optimal handling
