TIGR® Matrix Surgical Mesh
For six months TIGR® Matrix Surgical Mesh maintains mechanical integrity equivalent to a lightweight polypropylene mesh and initially is twice that strong.
High strength is crucial in the initial wound healing phase. Beyond that the increasing mechanical compliance of TIGR® Matrix is designed to promote remodelling of native tissue.

TIGR® Matrix Surgical Mesh is stronger for much longer than other synthetic absorbable meshes and is designed to have gradually increasing mechanical compliance.
VicrylTM (Polyglactin 910) for example degrades in a matter of 2-3 weeks. The long-term resorption of TIGR® Matrix gives the recipient tissue time to respond to the increasing mechanical load.

THE CONCEPT Of MECHaNOTRaNsDUCTION*
TIGR® Matrix Surgical Mesh
“collagen networks are mechanosensitive in that they are stabilized by mechanical strain.”
Muscles and tendons become stronger in response to repetitive loading.
“Tendons adapt to changes in mechanical loading, and numerous animal studies show that immobilization of a healing tendon is detrimental to the healing process.”
*mechanotransduction is the physiological process where cells sense and respond to mechanical loads Br J Sports Med 2009;43:247-252 doi:10.1136/bjsm.2008.054239
PRODUCT - time dependent mechanical characteristics
TIGR® Matrix Surgical Mesh
TIGR® Matrix Surgical Mesh was developed based on the hypothesis that soft tissue positively remodels in response to the stimulus of increased mechanical load.
The increasing mechanical compliance results in a gradual transition of load from the mesh to the patient.

PRODUCT - why long-term resorbable /absorbable?
TIGR® Matrix Surgical Mesh
Wound healing is a long-term process. In particular, the time taken to regain 50% of normal tissue strength is typically 3 months, after which about 80% of normal tissue strength is ultimately achieved. The time scale can be significantly longer in some patients.
Approximate times of the different phases of wound healing, with faded intervals marking substantial variation, depending mainly on wound size and healing conditions.

Note: regarding foreign body reactionThe foreign body reaction begins as wound healing, including accumulation of exudate at the site of injury, infiltration of inflammatory cells to debride the area, and the formation of granulation tissue.
However, the persistent presence of a biomedical implant, splinter, particulates, or other foreign bodies inhibits full healing. Rather than the resorption and reconstruction that occurs in wound healing, the foreign body reaction is characterized by the formation of foreign body giant cells, encapsulation of the foreign object, and chronic inflammation.

TIGR® Matrix - published evidence
As stated in the publication: “As the resorbable test mesh gradually degraded it was replaced by a newly formed collagen matrix with an increasing ratio of collagen type I/III, indicating a continuous remodeling of the collagen towards a strong connective tissue.” Furthermore: “The general connective tissue layer formed was thicker around the test mesh compared to the control.”

54 year old male. Necrotizing pancreatitis in 2009. Multiple abdominal operations resulted in open abdomen necessitating skin graft over bowel. Presented one year later with large ventral hernia defect and obvious skin graft deformity.
TIGR® Matrix Surgical Mesh was used as an alternative to permanent synthetic mesh because permanent synthetic mesh can require mesh removal in the setting of a post operative wound infection.
TIGR® Matrix Surgical Mesh performed well with excellent short-term outcomes in a complex patient with high risk of wound complications.

TIGR® Matrix Surgical Mesh
In December 2010 a 50 year-old female executive was diagnosed with left breast carcinoma. She subsequently underwent an elective left skin sparing mastectomy and reconstruction with an ipsilateral transverse rectus abdominis myocutaneous (TRAM) flap.
Following elevation of the TRAM flap, the abdominal donor site is closed primarily with PDS 1 suture. A TIGR® Matrix Surgical Mesh is used as an onlay mesh to reinforce the closure. It is anchored with a PDS 2/0 and 3/0 continuous stitches.
Conclusion:
Being fully resorbable, there is a potential benefit of reduced long term complication associated with permanent implants.
