ProGYNious – Lightweight mesh body and strong mesh neck
ProGYNious is made from two types of polypropylene mesh material. It combines the best of both materials to maintain elasticity and to give strong support at once!
1. Mesh body:
The ultra-lightweight hexagonal shaped mesh, with a wide pore structure, is used to reduce foreign body tissue reaction and to allow good integration in the vaginal area.
2. Mesh neck:
The mesh neck is made of firmer, denser mesh material for a stable fixation to the longitudinal ligament at the leve of the sacral promontory.
Benefits
Different ProGYNious variants for different patient’s needs:
- ProGYNious A (anterior) is placed between vagina and bladder to prevent from recurrent cystocele
- ProGYNious P (posterior) is placed between vagina and rectum to prevent from recurrent rectocele
- ProGYNious is a Y-shaped mesh prosthesis which combines the features of the ProGYNious A and the ProGYNious P
Facts
- Two mesh materials: Combination of ultralight, large pore, soft, iso-elastic mesh at the vaginal level and denser, less elastic mesh for firm suspension
- Applicable for the well-established procedure sacrocolpopexy and sacrocervicopexy
- Apical component for level 1 suspension to prevent vaginal prolapse
- Stiffer mesh neck is fixed at level of sacral promontory to the longitudinal ligament
The mesh in detail:
- Ultra-lightweight mesh material 21 g/m2
- Hexagonal structure for isoelasticity
- Wide-pore structure ≥ 1,9 mm
- Macroporous
- 93% Porosity
- Extra-large interstitial micropores: 100-150 μm
- Monofilament polypropylene
