32 devices · GMDN 61545
Extra-gynaecological surgical mesh made from a composite of biologic and synthetic materials is designed for tissue repair or reinforcement in areas outside the gynaecological system. These devices, often used in procedures like hernia repair or pericardial reinforcement, may also act as temporary scaffolds to support tissue regeneration over time.
Such composite meshes are typically regulated based on their intended use, material composition, and risk profile, with variations in classification depending on jurisdiction. They are often supplied as single-use implants, sometimes paired with disposable tools for surgical application, and must meet strict standards for biocompatibility and performance.
