Parietex™ Folding mesh has a suture to fold the mesh, making insertion into a laparascopic cannula easier. This design enables ease of placement of the mesh into the surgical site for inguinal hernia repair.
All of Covidien's Parietex™ products are created from a macroporous polyester material whose properties invite healthy tissue integration and mesh compliance while reducing encapsulation.1
