    Product Description
    Bard Dulex mesh is a dual-sided ePTFE mesh designed for ventral hernia repair. On one side is a micro-porous structure designed to minimize visceral attachment to the prosthesis. On the other side is a macro-porous structure designed to promote tissue growth. This ingrowth side has a pore size of approximately 800 microns, which is nearly equivalent to polypropylene mesh. Bard Dulex Mesh has about 35 times more tissue ingrowth capacity then the Gore-Tex DualMesh Corduroy Biomaterial. Bard Dulex Mesh also features a unique inter-pore structure. Running through these pores are structures called fibrils. These fibrils act like support beams and allow tissue to grow in and around them. Finally, Bard Dulex Mesh is an overall stronger material than the Gore-Tex DualMesh Corduroy Biomaterial. In a laboratory test, the Dulex Mesh had an average ultimate strength of 16.2 kg/cm, compared to the Gore-Tex DualMesh Corduroy Biomaterial at 13.7kg/cm.
