BLOOMINGTON, Ind.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Results from a clinical study led by Luca Ansaloni, M.D., showed that Cook Medical’s Biodesign Inguinal Hernia Graft causes less postoperative pain and discomfort while creating a repair as durable as synthetic mesh when used in Lichtenstein’s hernioplasty procedures. As published in a recent issue of the American Journal of Surgery, the three-year, 70-patient study determined that patients treated with Biodesign Inguinal Hernia Graft experienced a lower level of postoperative pain as compared with synthetic mesh-based procedures.
