Parietex™ Optimized Composite Open Skirt (PCO OSx) mesh provides a new level of control during open ventral hernia repair. The open skirted (OS) design has increased rigidity for easier handling during implantation in open incisional and ventral hernia repair.

The skirted flap on the parietal side of the mesh allows for more easily accessible fixation points in the open approach. The skirt provides an area of fixation protected from the viscera on one side and allows fixation to the abdominal wall without disrupting the collagen film.
