Treatment of de-peritonealized intestine with 4DryField( ®) PH prevents adhesions between non-resorbable intra-peritoneal hernia mesh and bowel.

CONCLUSION: These experiments mimick clinical IPOM implantation scenarios with adjacent bowel depleted from peritoneum. 4DryField(®) PH gel treatment resulted in intestinal mesothelial surface recovering without development of bowel-to-mesh adhesions. Concurrently, integration of mesh into the abdominal wall is undisturbed by 4DryField(®) PH treatment. PMID: 28078041 [PubMed]
