“Surge in Mesh Utilization for Hernia Repairs”
- Hernia repair surgeries incorporate mesh, underscoring its critical role in modern surgical practices
- Mesh implants provide structural support, reducing recurrence rates and improving long-term patient outcomes
- Innovations such as self-fixating meshes and bioresorbable materials are gaining traction, offering benefits such as reduced postoperative pain and quicker recovery times
- The rise in laparoscopic surgeries has increased the demand for mesh devices, as they facilitate smaller incisions and faster healing
- Recent FDA clearances for new mesh products, such as TELA Bio's OviTex PRS Long-Term Resorbable mesh, reflect growing confidence and innovation in the field
