3-D Printed Biomesh Minimizes Hernia Repair Complications

Over 400,000 surgeries are conducted every year in the US alone to treat hernias, one of the most common soft tissue injuries. However, the current standard of care is a highly in?ammatory process causing visceral adhesions and postsurgical complications.

To address these complications, the team at Baylor College of Medicine recently used our REGENHU bioprinter to design a 3D printed biomesh that minimizes postsurgical complications of hernia repair in an animal model.
