Clinical Trial Summary

This feasibility study highlights the features of the 3D dynamic responsive prosthesis ProFlor-E® for fixation free obliteration of inguinal hernia defect


Description:

The 3D dynamic-responsive prosthesis for inguinal hernia repair ProFlor-E® recently introduced to the market has been laparoscopically employed for the repair of one recurrent inguinal hernia previously managed with anterior open approach. The scope of this feasibility study is to demonstrate that the positive effects of the 3D implant already proven in open inguinal hernia repair are also effective or even superior for the laparoscopic of recurrent/bilateral inguinal hernias compared to conventional treatment concept.
