Histoacryl® LapFix Pack
Atraumatic mesh fixation

Histoacryl® LapFix Pack is a tissue adhesive applicator for laparoscopic hernia repair surgeries. It consists of a Histoacryl® LapFix-Cannula, a Syringe Injekt® 2mL Luer Lock Solo and a Histoacryl® ampoule.

In recent years, atraumatic mesh fixation with tissue adhesive has increasingly become the method of choice. It is the recommended mesh fixation method by the International Hernia Society Guidelines for groin hernia management [1].

 

Histoacryl® Mesh Fixation is…

Atraumatic

  • Stand-alone fixation method in different hernia repair techniques [2-10]
  • Rapid polymerization [11]
  • Atraumatic method reported to be better tolerated by the patient than traditional fixation methods [2-7, 9, 10, 12]

Prevents complications

  • Reduced risk of post-operative pain compared to traditional fixation methods [2-7, 9, 12]
  • Faster return to work compared to traditional fixation methods. [2, 4, 8, 13]
  • Lower or similar intra- and postoperative morbidity compared to traditional fixation methods. [2, 4, 7, 9, 12]
  • Lower or similar rate of infections related to Histoacryl® than other techniques [2, 4-6, 12, 14]
  • Similar recurrence rate than with traditional fixation methods [2-9, 12]

Easy to use

  • Decreased surgery time compared to traditional fixation [4-6, 8, 12]
  • Storage at <22 ºC [15]

Affordable

  • Only necessary to apply few small drops to the desired fixing sites. [11,16]
  • Lower price than tackers, fibrin glue or staples. [17]
