<p>The prosthetic plug comprises a base (1) of circular or rectangular shape made of monofilament macroporous polypropylene mesh of surgical quality of rigid type with controlled memory for the tension free suturless positioning of said plug, and a flattened blunted apex (2) with rounded shape (2a) made of a preformed mesh of surgical quality with surface memory for its introduction and obstruction inside the wall defect. Unlike the plugs of the prior art that cause tension or sting and tickle under the skin because of their point after the implant, or like the cylindrical plugs requiring an awkward preparation during the operation and are difficult to be accomplished without tension, the plug of the invention allows tension free implants with pre-peritoneal approach for relapsing cruroinguinal herniae, for front repair of crural herniae and with front approach repair of big relapsing inguinal herniae. The plug can be more particularly applied in hernioplasty surgery, more particularly in the inguinal surgery, with dramatic reduction of failures and relapses. <IMAGE></p> |
