Surgical Innovation Associates' DuraSorb® Monofilament Mesh is made with polydioxanone and offers decreased surface area to reduce bacterial adhesion, hydrolyzes and absorbs parallel to the tissue's natural strength recovery, and can be cut, tailored, and draped like an autologous tissue for ease of use during surgery. The company's proximity to academia and world-leading healthcare institutions has created an ideal ecosystem for the translation of concepts into devices to meet key clinical needs, and they have a growing pipeline of novel medical devices made from commonly-used resorbable polymers.
