ULTRAPRO™ Macroporous Partially Absorbable Mesh
ULTRAPRO™ Macroporous Partially Absorbable Mesh offers strength with reduced foreign body mass1A which may reduce the risk of patient complications compared with mircroporous mesh.2 In a study of patients from the International Mesh Hernia Registry (IHMR), patients demonstrated low rates of intra- and post-operative complications, such as seromas and recurrence, after 1 year.3B In the same study, patients reported improvement in pain and movement limitations from baseline at 1 year postsurgery.3B
