ENDOPROSTHESIS FOR INGUINAL HERNIA SURGERY IN MEN Russian patent published in 2022 - IPC A61F2/02 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: endoprosthesis for inguinal hernia surgery in men, containing a first part in the form of a rectangular mesh material with a first surface and a second surface, opposite to the first surface, intended to adjoin the spermatic cord region. A second part is located on the side of the second surface, in the form of an anti-adhesive polymer elastic film with engagement elements connecting said part with the mesh material, wherein a mesh material passes in said elements. The elastic film is trapezoidal and configured to cover the elements of the spermatic cord, on the condition that the smaller base of the trapezoid is adjacent to the deep inguinal ring and the larger base thereof is adjacent to the elements of the spermatic cord and the external iliac vessels. The larger base of the trapezoid is adjacent to the edge of the rectangular mesh material, and the second part is made of a crosslinked polymer based on methacrylic oligomers and monomers.

EFFECT: reduced inflammatory load, inflammatory and scarring changes, as well as reduced shrinkage of the endoprosthesis in the postoperative period, which may affect the elements of the spermatic cord and the vas deferens.
