Description
Leading the future of fixation
ProGrip™ laparoscopic self-fixating mesh has the ability to accommodate different inguinal hernia repair surgical techniques through the compatibility with laparoscopic approach (including traditional laparoscopic and robotically assisted laparoscopic surgeries)†,1-7, and
- Eliminates the pain associated with additional fixation3,4
- Facilitates faster use than using additional fixations‡,8,9
- Can lower the cost of the laparoscopic inguinal procedure by combining the functionality of mesh and fixation into one device10,11
