Hernia prosthesis with marking means
Prosthesis ( 1 ) comprising a patch ( 2 ) made of biocompatible material, said patch having a generally plane geometric shape that defines two opposite faces, a centre, a length and a width of said patch, characterized in that said patch is provided, on one ( 2 a ) of its faces, with a single marking means ( 3 ) designed to indicate both the centre (C) of the patch and also the longitudinal direction of said patch.
1. A prosthesis comprising a first textile made of a first biocompatible material, said first textile having a first generally plane geometric shape that defines a first face and a second face opposite the first face and a second open-worked textile made of a second biocompatible material, said second open-worked textile positioned on at least the first face of the first textile, said second open-worked textile having a second generally plane geometric shape including a perimeter surrounding a center of the first face of the first textile and designed to indicate both the center and a longitudinal direction of the first face of the first textile, said second open-worked textile including a part absent of material, the part located on the center of the first face of the first planar textile, wherein the perimeter of the shape of the second open-worked textile combines a circular shape and a generally elongate triangular shape attached to said circular shape.
2. The prosthesis according to claim 1 , wherein the first textile is an open-worked textile.
3. The prosthesis according to claim 1 , wherein the first textile is a three-dimensional textile.
4. The prosthesis according to claim 3 , wherein the second open-worked textile is a two-dimensional knit.
5. The prosthesis according to claim 1 , wherein the first biocompatible material is a bioabsorbable material.
6. The prosthesis according to claim 5 , wherein the second biocompatible material is a non-bioabsorbable material.
7. The prosthesis according to claim 1 , wherein the first generally plane geometric shape of the first textile is generally parallel to the second generally plane geometric shape of the second open-worked textile.
8. The prosthesis according to claim 1 , wherein a longitudinal axis of the elongate shape is parallel to the longitudinal direction of the first face of the first textile.
9. The prosthesis according to claim 1 , wherein the elongate shape is attached to the circular shape via one end of the elongate triangle.
10. The prosthesis according to claim 1 , wherein the part absent of material of the second open-worked textile is a central part of the circular shape.
11. The prosthesis according to claim 1 , wherein the second open-worked textile has a color different than a color of the first textile.
12. The prosthesis according to claim 1 , wherein the second open-worked textile is sewn onto the first face of the first textile.
13. The prosthesis according to claim 1 , wherein the second open-worked textile is glued onto the first face of the first textile.
14. The prosthesis according to claim 1 , wherein the second open-worked textile is positioned with a central region of the first textile, wherein the central region includes a surface area of less than or equal to 20 cm 2 .
15. A prosthesis comprising a first textile made of a bioabsorbable material, said first textile having a first generally plane geometric shape that defines a first face and a second face opposite the first face and a second open-worked textile made of a non-bioabsorbable material, said second open-worked textile positioned on at least the first face of the first textile, said second open-worked textile having a second generally plane geometric shape including a perimeter surrounding a center of the first face of the first textile and designed to indicate both the center and a longitudinal direction of the first face of the first textile, said second open-worked textile including a part absent of material, the part located on the center of the first face of the first planar textile.
