Prolene mesh is a type of surgical mesh made from polypropylene, a synthetic polymer. It is commonly used in various surgical procedures, particularly for hernia repair and pelvic organ prolapse, due to its durability, biocompatibility, and ability to promote tissue integration. The mesh is designed to provide support and reinforcement to weakened or damaged tissues, helping to prevent recurrence of the condition being treated. Its lightweight and porous structure allows for tissue ingrowth while minimizing complications.
