TiLOOP® PRO PLUS A


The TiLOOP® PRO PLUS A Transvaginal Descensus Repair System is suitable for the anterior elevation of the pelvic floor (cystocele; vaginal prolaps). The PLUS System and the hydrophilic, titanised surface of the mesh make it unique.


Benefits

Improved Quality of Life  In one of the most comprehensive prospective studies in the area of pelvic floor reconstruction using transvaginal mesh implants, a significant permanent improvement in the quality of life, particularly with regard to the much-discussed topic of sexuality, was demonstrated by the previous product (more on the study).1,2

Safe and Guideline-based  As a 6-arm mesh, with additional apical fixation in the sacrospinal ligaments, the TiLOOP® PRO PLUS A offers a safe, guideline-based descensus therapy.3

Unique PLUS System  With the PLUS-System, which consists of an insertion cannula and loops, the mesh arms can be positioned atraumatically and adjusted bi-directionally: best prerequisites for tension and fold-free insertion of the mesh.

Reduced Risk of Inflammation  Compared to simple polypropylene, the hydrophilic, titanised surface represents a lower risk of inflammation — and therefore less scar formation.4

By urogynaecologists, for urogynaecologists  All TiLOOP® mesh implants were developed together with urogynaecologists and are 100% Made in Germany.

Knowledge

Highest demands on the material

In addition to the skills of the surgeon, the quality of the mesh material determines the quality of a lasting and anatomically stable descensus repair. TiLOOP® mesh implants are made of Type 1a polypropylene mesh (macroporous & monofilament)5 with a titanised, hydrophilic surface. Compared to simple polypropylene, this offers a number of advantages, which are already known in the use of titanised mesh implants for hernia surgery, such as:

  • better cell growth6
  • lower risk of inflammation7
  • less scarring7
  • less shrinkage of the mesh8
Increased cell vitality of fibroblasts through polypropylene surface titanisation (6)
