Hernia prosthesis
The present invention relates to a prosthesis ( 200 ) comprising:—at least one layer of a flexible mesh ( 1 ) delimited by a peripheral outer edge ( 1 a ), said mesh having a first color, and—at least one layer ( 2 ) of porous material fixed to said mesh substantially along the perimeter of said peripheral outer edge, said layer of porous material being recessed at its central part ( 4 ), said layer of porous material having a second color, different from said first color.
1. A prosthesis comprising:
at least one layer of a flexible mesh delimited by a peripheral outer edge, said mesh having a first color, and
at least one layer of a porous material fixed to said mesh substantially along a perimeter of said peripheral outer edge, said layer of porous material including a recess at a central part, in such a way that said layer of porous material forms a skirt extending from the peripheral outer edge of the mesh, or from a point set slightly back from the peripheral outer edge, towards a center of the mesh, the skirt being substantially parallel to a plane of the mesh and including a succession of wider parts and narrower parts, the narrower parts indication corners of the peripheral outer edge and the wider parts indicating sides of the peripheral outer edge, said layer of porous material having a second color, different from said first color, wherein the first color and the second color generate a contrast of 50% to 100%, according to the scale of contrast sensitivity defined for public buildings.
2. The prosthesis according to claim 1 , wherein said layer of porous material is fixed continuously along said perimeter.
3. The prosthesis according to claim 1 , wherein said layer of porous material is a textile.
4. The prosthesis according to claim 3 , wherein said textile is a gripping textile.
5. The prosthesis according to claim 4 , wherein said gripping textile has a face provided with barbs, said face provided with barbs being directed towards an outside of the prosthesis.
6. The prosthesis according to claim 1 wherein a second face of the mesh opposite a first face having the layer of porous material is covered with an anti-adhesion coating.
7. The prosthesis according to claim 1 wherein said layer of porous material has pores with an average size ranging from 1×1 mm 2 to 2×2 mm 2 .
8. The prosthesis according to claim 1 , wherein the first color and the second color generate a contrast of 70% to 100%, according to the scale of contrast sensitivity defined for public buildings.
9. The prosthesis according to claim 1 , wherein the first color and second color combination is selected from the group consisting of beige/red, beige/blue, beige/green, beige/purple, beige/pink, beige/brown, beige/black, beige/grey, white/red, white/blue, white/orange, white/green, white/purple, white/pink, white/brown, white/black, white/grey, grey/yellow, grey/black, black/yellow, black/orange, black/green, black/purple, black/pink, brown/yellow, brown/orange, brown/pink, pink/red, pink/yellow, pink/blue, purple/yellow, green/yellow, green/orange, orange/red, orange/yellow, orange/blue, blue/yellow, yellow/red.
10. The prosthesis according to claim 1 , wherein the first color and second color combination is white/green.
11. The prosthesis according to claim 1 , wherein the first color and second color combination is beige/blue.
12. The prosthesis according to claim 1 , wherein the succession of wider parts and narrower parts is distributed symmetrically along the perimeter of the peripheral outer edge.
13. The prosthesis according to claim 1 wherein the porous material is non-bioresorbable.
14. A prosthesis for hernia repair comprising:
at least one layer of a flexible mesh delimited by a peripheral outer edge, said mesh having a first color, and
at least one gripping textile having a face provided with barbs, said at least one gripping textile fixed to said mesh substantially along a perimeter of said peripheral outer edge, said at least one gripping textile including a recess at a central part, in such a way that said at least one gripping textile forms a skirt extending from the peripheral outer edge of the mesh, or from a point set slightly back from the peripheral outer edge, towards a center of the mesh, the skirt being substantially parallel to a plane of the mesh and including a succession of wider parts and narrower parts, the narrower parts indicating corners of the peripheral outer edge and the wider parts indicating sides of the peripheral outer edge, said at least one gripping textile having a second color different from said first color, wherein the first color and the second color generate a contrast of 50% to 100% according to the scale of contrast sensitivity defined for public buildings.
15. The prosthesis according to claim 14 , wherein a second face of the mesh opposite a first face having the at least one gripping textile is covered with an anti-adhesion coating.
16. The prosthesis according to claim 14 , wherein said at least one gripping textile has pores with an average size ranging from 1×1 mm 2 to 2×2 mm 2 .
17. The prosthesis according to claim 14 , wherein the first color and the second color generate a contrast of 70% to 100%, according to the scale of contrast sensitivity defined for public buildings.
18. The prosthesis according to claim 14 , wherein the first color and second color combination is selected from the group consisting of beige/red, beige/blue, beige/green, beige/purple, beige/pink, beige/brown, beige/black, beige/grey, white/red, white/blue, white/orange, white/green, white/purple, white/pink, white/brown, white/black, white/grey, grey/yellow, grey/black, black/yellow, black/orange, black/green, black/purple, black/pink, brown/yellow, brown/orange, brown/pink, pink/red, pink/yellow, pink/blue, purple/yellow, green/yellow, green/orange, orange/red, orange/yellow, orange/blue, blue/yellow, yellow/red.
19. The prosthesis according to claim 14 , wherein the first color and second color combination is white/green.
20. The prosthesis according to claim 14 , wherein the first color and second color combination is beige/blue.
21. The prosthesis for hernia repair of claim 14 , wherein the first color/second color combination is selected from a group consisting of beige/red, beige/green, beige/purple, beige/pink, beige/brown, beige/black, beige/grey, white/red, white/orange, white/pink, white/brown, white/black, white/grey, grey/yellow, grey/black, black/yellow, black/orange, black/green, black/purple, black/pink, brown/yellow, brown/orange, brown/pink, pink/red, pink/yellow, pink/blue, purple/yellow, green/yellow, green/orange, orange/red, orange/yellow, orange/blue, blue/yellow, yellow/red.
