    摘要: Disclosed herein are gender-specific implantable mesh for inguinal hernia repair in a patient, comprising: a fabric layer comprising a side defining a surface area wherein the fabric layer is configured to enable tissue adhesion to said mesh; an anti-adhesive barrier comprising a shape configured to prevent direct contact between the fabric layer and both a spermatic cord and a genital nerve upon implantation, wherein the shape covers a part of the surface area on the side of the fabric layer, the part being less than 25%, and wherein the shape is oblique to a horizontally-oriented centerline and a vertically-oriented centerline; and a keyhole configured to fit the genital nerve and the spermatic cord of the patient therethrough without constriction, wherein the keyhole is oblique and inferior to a horizontally-oriented centerline and medial to a vertically-oriented centerline.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a prosthesis (1) for repairing an inguinal hernia defect comprising:



    a piece (2) of biocompatible material having a preformed three-dimensional shape, including:

    a first portion (3) forming a partial spherical cap surface (8) shaped and dimensioned so as to substantially conform to the shape of the anterior abdominal wall,
    a second portion (4) extending from an inferior edge of said first portion and forming a wavy-shaped wall (9), shaped and dimensioned so as to substantially conform to the shape of the psoas muscle,


    characterized in that said piece (2) further comprises:
    a third portion (5) forming an arched part (10) extending longitudinally in the inferior direction from a medial inferior corner (3a) of said first portion, said arched part extending radially substantially in the front direction, said third portion being intended to face the medial inferior area of the inguinal anatomy.
