NovaMesh from Nicast

Filed under: Surgery

Nicast out of Lod, Israel, developers of fine electrospun polymer "nanofabric", will be introducing the company's new NovaMesh™ Ventral Hernia Mesh at Medica 2008 conference in Germany next week. We have profiled Nicast's proprietary poly-urethane nanometric scale fiber scaffolding twice before (see flashbacks at the end of this post).

From the product page:

The NovaMesh Ventral Hernia Mesh features improved resistance to tissue adhesion on the visceral-facing surface, and promotes excellent tissue ingrowth on the fascial surface. The NovaMesh is the first hernia mesh to exploit the unique properties of electrospun nanofabric.

These include:

Improved resistance to tissue adhesion on the visceral-facing surface

Excellent tissue ingrowth on the fascial surface

Near-perfect flatness, no creasing or kinking following tight rolling and unrolling

Biomimetic electrospun nanofabric

Easy handling and laparoscopic insertion – all sizes can fit through a trocar

No shrinkage
