In laparoscopic and open hernia repair procedures, secure mesh fixation plays a critical role in surgical success and patient recovery. Universal Sutures introduces a high-performance Absorbable Mesh Tacker, designed to provide strong initial fixation while ensuring gradual absorption for enhanced patient comfort.
Built with advanced polymer technology, this device supports reliable mesh anchoring during the critical healing phase — without leaving a permanent implant behind.
Product Overview
-
Is intended for fixation of prosthetic material to soft tissue
-
Contains absorbable tacks made of Poly (lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA)
-
Is sterile and single-use
-
Is suitable for both laparoscopic and open surgical procedures
The tacks degrade into lactic acid and glycolic acid, which are naturally metabolized by the body.
Clinical Performance & Absorption Profile
The absorbable tack is engineered for predictable degradation:
-
✔ Slow initial degradation to maintain fixation effectiveness
-
✔ Retains approximately 85% shear strength at 12 weeks post-implantation
-
✔ Fully absorbed within approximately 52 weeks
-
✔ Dyed with D&C Violet No.2 for surgical visibility
This ensures stable mesh support during tissue integration while eliminating long-term foreign body presence.
Key Features
• Fully Absorbable
