PROCEED™ Surgical Mesh is a sterile, thin, flexible laminate mesh comprised of an oxidized regenerated cellulose (ORC) fabric, and PROLENE™ Soft Polypropylene Mesh (a nonabsorbale polypropylene mesh encapsulated by a polydioxanone polymer). The ORC side provides a bioresorbable layer that physically separates the polypropylene mesh from underlying tissue and organ surfaces during the wound-healing period to minimize tissue attachment to the mesh. The polypropylene mesh side of the product allows for tissue ingrowth while the polydioxanone provides a bond to the ORC layer.
