A Prospective Outcome Study of Condensed Fenestrated PTFE Mesh (MotifMESH) in Non-sterile Abdominal Wall Defects

This study will monitor surgically repaired large abdominal hernias requiring condensed
fenestrated polytetrafluoroethylene mesh (cPTFE).

cPTFEi s a mesh-like product designed to reduce associated post surgical complications.

Inclusion Criteria:

Has a non-sterile abdominal wall defect (incisional hernia or fascial defect) and needs to
be repaired

Exclusion Criteria:

small or large bowel repair, stoma manipulation, small chronic abdominal skin wounds, bowel
obstruction

Acceptable state of health and nutrition with pre-albumin levels of ≥ 15 mg/dL (0.15 g/L),
serum albumin ≥ 2.0 g/dL (20 g/L). No abnormal pre-surgery laboratory values that, in the
