Covidien Medtronic | Parietex Optimized Composite Mesh | 15 cm Round | PCO15X

The Covidien Medtronic PCO15X is an advanced, partially bioabsorbable surgical mesh designed for the reinforcement of abdominal wall soft tissues where a weakness exists. Sized as an expanded 15 cm round flat sheet, this next-generation Optimized Composite (PCOx) implant is engineered to meet advanced clinical requirements in laparoscopic and open ventral hernia repairs where a larger area of coverage is necessary to achieve adequate margins.

The dual-sided matrix pairs a three-dimensional nonabsorbable polyester knit textile on the parietal surface with an absorbable, hydrophilic collagen film barrier on the visceral surface. This structural configuration supports rapid, high-strength abdominal wall integration while actively minimizing intra-abdominal visceral attachments.
