  Purpose

Surgically repair of large abdominal hernias requires prosthetic materials such as mesh-like products. A relatively new synthetic product cPTFE is designed as a cost effective alternative to reduce associated post surgical complications. The study will monitor patients over a one year period.

  Eligibility

Ages Eligible for Study:   18 Years and older
Genders Eligible for Study:   Both
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:   No
Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

Has a non-sterile abdominal wall defect (incisional hernia or fascial defect) and needs to be repaired

Exclusion Criteria:

Non-pregnant, breast feeding or plans to become pregnant during the study; Using adequate birth control methods and agrees to continue using those methods for the duration of the study

Confirmation of incisional hernia or fascial defect by CT scan within 6 months Incisional hernia or facial defect has no necrotic tissue. Such as fascial dehiscence, evisceration, small or large bowel repair, stoma manipulation, small chronic abdominal skin wounds, bowel obstruction

Acceptable state of health and nutrition with pre-albumin levels of ≥ 15 mg/dL (0.15 g/L), serum albumin ≥ 2.0 g/dL (20 g/L). No abnormal pre-surgery laboratory values that, in the opinion of the Principal Investigator, place the subject at risk for the study.

For subjects with Diabetes Mellitus, HbA1C <12%

BMI ≤ 40 kg/m²
