The PROLENE™ (Polypropylene) Hernia System is a sterile, pre-shaped, three dimensional device constructed of an onlay patch connected by a mesh cylinder to a circular underlay patch
The material is undyed PROLENE™ (Polypropylene) MESH constructed of knitted nonabsorbable polypropylene filaments
Its Onlay Patch covers the entire floor of the canal; it overlaps the pubic tubercle for added support, and provides the security of conventional patch techniques
Its Connector provides the simplicity of a plug repair and secures the underlay patch to prevent migration
The underlay patch lies flat in preperitoneal space, providing a double-layered reconstruction of the transversalis fascia and protects the entire Myopectineal orifice
This key and exclusive feature of the PROLENE Hernia System ensures that both the femoral and inguinal regions are protected to minimize the possibility of recurrence
