Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Consensus on the safety and efficacy of various types of mesh in reconstructing the abdomen has yet to be reached. Hybrid mesh products have been designed to address the need for a cost-effective mesh leveraging the tensile strength of a synthetic mesh while minimizing the prosthetic footprint within the abdominal wall through resorbable materials. In this study we evaluate early clinical outcomes and health related quality of life (HR-QOL) of a new Hybrid mesh, Synecor
METHODS: Adult (>18 y old) patients undergoing VHR with Synecor
RESULTS: Thirty-five patients were included in our analysis with a median follow up of 2.1 y. The median age and BMI were 54.1 y and 33.2 kg/m
CONCLUSIONS: Abdominal reinforcement with Synecor
