Parietex Easegrip™ mesh features a unique design for open inguinal hernia repair that combines the soft compliance of the 3D weave for patient comfort with the key hole slit for ease of placement around the cord. This design also uses a pre-placed suture to mark the medial aspect of the mesh to facilitate placement. The ability to attach the flap with an integrated connection makes Parietex Easegrip™ mesh easy to use.
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
