hiatal hernia : MESH IMPLANT TIMESH

REVOLUTION IN MODERN HERNIA SURGERY
Titanium and synthetics are two materials that have been used with great success in implant medicine for decades and enjoy an excellent reputation. The applications and properties of the two materials are very different. Titanium is used primarily because of its excellent body acceptance. Hernia mesh consists of synthetic material, which is an indispensable component of modern hernia surgery due to its flexibility.

GfE Medzintechnik has now succeeded in combining both properties - excellent biocompatibility and the highest level of flexibility.

Properties

TiMESH offers excellent biological and body acceptance
TiMESH consists of one monofile thread with a mesh size of more than 1 mm. It easily integrates into the body.
TiMESH extralight weighs only 16 g/m2 and is the lightest hernia mesh on the market - TiMESH light weighs only 35 g/m2
TiMESHimplants can be implanted just like all other hernia mesh; surgeons do not need to change their operating techniques
Perfect handling and excellent modeling capabilities due to the high wettability (hydrophilic) and anti-static properties of the titanium layer.
The titanium layer of TiMESH is so thin (approx. 30 nanometers) that it is as flexible as the synthetic material
The titanium layer of TiMESH is solidly connected with the synthetic material; they form a compound material
