For example: inguinal hernia, left side
Varying Pore Size
The devices have areas with different pore sizes.
Prefabricated Slit & Smooth Warp-Knitted Selvedges
The devices have a prefabricated slit with smooth warp-knitted selvedges, and they have tear propagation resistance [TR82].
Visibility & Handling
The colouring provides better intraoperative visibility and handling of the device.

| Effective Porosity |
High effective porosity reduces inflammation and the risk of excessive scar formation. [103P, TR83] |
| Klinge’s Mesh Classification | Class 1a [102P, TR83] |
| 1) Tissue adhesive can be used for fixation for direct or indirect inguinal hernias with a defect size of 1.5 cm to 3 cm (European Hernia Society Classification: M2 or L2). |
