Polypropylene-Polyethylene Composite Mesh
Duolene is a sterile, non-absorbable dual-sided composite mesh with a knitted polypropylene parietal side and a medical-grade polyethylene film on the visceral side, designed for open and laparoscopic ventral hernia repair.
Duolene, feature by feature.
Dual-sided meshes: a parietal side for tissue integration and a barrier film on the visceral side.
Dual-sided composite construction
Composed of one layer of knitted lightweight polypropylene mesh for the parietal side and one layer of medical-grade polyethylene film for the visceral side, fused together using a process that does not rely on adhesive.
Polyethylene film on the visceral side
The extruded, expanded low-porosity polyethylene film is intended to act as a barrier on the visceral side and to minimise tissue ingrowth and foreign body reaction at that surface.
Macroporous polypropylene parietal side
The macroporous polypropylene surface is intended to encourage tissue ingrowth and integration on the parietal side of the mesh.
Micropores for seroma drainage
The mesh contains micropores that are intended to allow drainage of seroma.
Transparent, thin and lightweight
The transparent film allows visualisation of the underlying anatomy, and the thin, lightweight design is intended to support rolling and laparoscopic placement.
Non-absorbable sterile prosthesis
A non-absorbable, sterile prosthesis supplied for single use in a range of shapes and sizes for open and laparoscopic ventral hernia repair.
Why surgeons choose Duolene
Performance and ‘first’ statements are from Futura Surgicare product literature. Always refer to the Instructions for Use supplied with the product.
- First Indian company to launch Duolene® mesh.
- Layers thermally fused without adhesive, enhancing the biocompatibility quotient of the mesh.
- Robust mesh with high burst strength.
- Medical-grade polyethylene barrier minimises visceral adhesions for a longer period.
- Polyethylene film minimises tissue ingrowth and foreign body reactions on the visceral side.
- Acts as a permanent barrier to adhesion.
What Duolene Mesh Is
Duolene is a sterile, non-absorbable composite mesh designed for hernia repair. The dual-sided prosthesis is intended to support tissue integration on one side while providing a barrier on the visceral side. It is used for the reconstruction of soft-tissue deficiencies and is intended for use by a qualified surgeon trained in mesh implantation and the relevant surgical techniques.
Composition and Construction
Duolene is composed of one layer of knitted lightweight polypropylene mesh for the parietal side and one layer of medical-grade polyethylene film for the visceral side. Both functional layers are fused together using a process that does not rely on adhesive. The polypropylene surface is macroporous and is intended to encourage tissue ingrowth on the parietal side, while the extruded, expanded, low-porosity polyethylene film is intended to act as a barrier and to minimise tissue ingrowth and foreign body reaction on the visceral side. The mesh also contains micropores intended to allow seroma drainage.
Characteristics and Handling
Duolene is transparent, allowing visualisation of the underlying anatomy, and its thin, lightweight design is intended to support rolling and laparoscopic placement. A placement marker is provided to assist orientation. The mesh can be fixed with sutures or tackers. Selection of size, orientation and fixation method is at the discretion of the surgeon, based on the patient’s condition, the type and location of the defect, and operative requirements.
Applications
Duolene is designed for use in:
- Ventral / incisional hernia
- Para-umbilical hernia
- Umbilical hernia
- Inguinal hernia — direct and indirect
- Femoral hernia
