An Italian company that produces and sells, via its worldwide distributor network, monofilament polypropylene meshes for hernia repair and female urinary incontinence. The Herniamesh founder is prof. Ermanno Trabucco, excellent surgeon and creator of the now famous hernia repair technique “Tension-free” of the same name.

Herniamesh prosthesis are the consolidated result of decades of research and development by Prof. Trabucco in the field of hernioplasty, thus ensuring an anatomically and functionally correct product.

The central, absorbable section of the meshes for female urinary incontinence, rather, renders the T-Sling range, created and patented by Prof. Arnaldo Trabucco, urologist and son of Prof. Ermanno, is unique and innovative.

Herniamesh makes use of a strict scientific collaboration with the academic and hospital spheres via important Universities and Research Centres, maintaining its high level company profile and its product quality level.

Herniamesh guarantees the quality of its products by dedicating careful attention to each stage of the production process within a certified Quality management programme.

All the products are manufactured with respect to the objectives of the Herniamesh Quality System, in conformity with UNI EN ISO 9001:2000 and UNI EN ISO 13485:2004, bear the CE markings released for the purposes of Appendix 2 to the European Directive 93/42/CEE, and the approval 510(k) released by the FDA for sale on the US market.

Products:

Pre-shaped meshes Hertra

Meshes used in reinforcement surgery of soft or weakened tissues. The pre-shaped "Hertra" meshes offer convenience and incomparable quality. They are suitable for the repair of INGUINAL HERNIAS via open surgery. Their anatomically correct design makes them ready to use, without further remodelling, therefore contributing to reduced wastage.

The HTR01 and HTR02 meshes are suitable for the repair of male inguinal hernias; the eccentric eye is in an anatomically correct position for the passage of the spermatic cord.
The HTR2A mesh is used for female inguinal hernias.

The pre-shaped Hertra is suitable for suture-less repairs, adapting well to the underlying tissue and never wrinkling. Soft pre-shaped meshes are difficult to handle; they must be sutured, and there is a 20% chance that they will wrinkle and tend to crease. The mesh must be of the right rigidity to achieve a correct hernioplasty using the Trabucco technique: "Suture-less Tension-free".

Three-dimensional, round based plugs T2

Ideal for the repair of recurring inguinal hernias via open surgery.

T2 plugs, as in the T3 version, with the tip joined to the base, do not tend to shrink as, for example, in other known plugs available on the market, in which, due to a hollow interior, fibroblast encapsulation may occur only partially. The rounded tip of the T2 plug is more rigid than the base, does not cause blood vessel compression and adapts to every dimension of the hernial defect. The base reinforces the tissues around the defect and, if sutured, helps to prevent recurrence deriving from possible plug migration.

Three-dimensional rectangular based plugs T3

Plugs used in surgery to reinforce soft or weakened tissues such as hernia repair.

Ideal for the repair of recurring inguinal hernias using the pre-peritoneal approach in open surgery, and the laparoscopy approach in cases in which there is significant destruction or presumed weakness of the rear wall.

	PT37H3S	Large tip, soft base	6 x 11 cm	2/box
	PT35H2L	Medium tip, semirigid base	10 x 14 cm	2/box
	PT37H2L	Large tip, semirigid base	10 x 14 cm	2/box
	PT35H3L	Medium tip, soft base	10 x 14 cm	2/box
	PT37H3L	Large tip, soft base	10 x 14 cm	2/box

Pre-shaped meshes T4 R

Round, pre-shaped meshes (5 cm diameter), rigid or semirigid, with eccentric eye.

Suitable for indirect, medium-large inguinal hernias: they reduce the dimensions of the expanded internal inguinal ring and reinforce surrounding tissue

Pre-shaped meshes T5

Meshes with eccentric opening used in reinforcement surgery of soft or weakened tissues. Suitable for inguinal open repair and may also be used in laparoscopy. In association with Hertra pre-shaped meshes, they are ideal for the repair of male inguinal hernias where there is significant destruction or presumed weakness of the rear wall, the distance between the two meshes being anatomically adjustable in the way best suited.

Pre-shaped meshes OVAL

Rigid meshes suitable for pre-peritoneal open repair.
They may also be used in laparoscopy.

	Code	Description	Dimensions	Quantity

Hertra Kits

Handy, time-saving and economically more advantageous kits.
Suitable for the repair of both male and female inguinal, femoral and recurrent hernias.
