The first of its’ kind – in EMEA & ASIA.

TIGR® Matrix Surgical Mesh is the world’s first long-term resorbable, 100% absorbable synthetic matrix.

TIGR® Matrix Surgical Mesh is intended for use in reinforcement of soft tissue where weakness exists, in procedures involving the repair of hernias and abdominal wall defects, abdominal wall reinforcement and muscle flap reinforcement.

TIGR® Matrix Surgical Mesh is available in two sizes: 10 x 15 cm & 20 x 30 cm
 
Dr Hilton Becker of Boca Raton, Florida presented at IPRAS 2012 in Geneva on the subject of “The Use of Synthetic Mesh in Cosmetic and Reconstructive Breast Surgery”. A white paper detailing initial results (62 patients / 112 breasts) entitled:
“Initial results of the use of TIGR® Matrix Surgical Mesh for prosthetic breast reconstruction and secondary procedures following prosthetic breast reconstruction or breast augmentation.“

TIGR® Matrix is warp knitted from two different resorbable fibers that degrade at different rates following implantation. The first fiber is a copolymer of glycolide, lactide and trimethylene carbonate. The second fiber is a copolymer of lactide and trimethylene carbonate. Both fibers degrade by bulk hydrolysis once implanted.

This unique patented dual-fiber design provides an initial high strength / high stability configuration, with gradually increasing mechanical compliance over time as the device loses strength and is resorbed. The macroporous structure (pore size of 1-1.5 mm at the time of implantation) is designed to permit tissue integration for tissue repair.

In preclinical trials, TIGR® Matrix has shown excellent tissue integration and early vascularization when tested under demanding conditions to cover full thickness defects of the abdominal wall in a sheep model with no defect recurrences after two years of implantation.
