Redefining Ventral Hernia Repair

New PROCEED Surgical Mesh takes ventral hernia repair to the next level. It features a thin, bioresorbable fabric layer that effectively separates its strong, suppportive mesh from underlying tissue and organs. A composite of proven products from ETHICON, PROCEED Surgical Mesh addresses the issues of tissue attachment, infection and sub-optimal handling that remain potential problems with currently available tissue separating meshes. PROCEED Surgical Mesh defines a new level of performance.
