Abstract

See full text

A prosthesis to obturate a hernial canal includes a first part made of surgical material and configured in such a way as to deform under the effect of intra-abdominal pressure, to oppose such pressure elastically and to spread the force at the hernial canal over a portion of the inside face of the wall of a hernial cavity; and a second part for positioning in contact with the inside face of the wall of the hernial cavity and positioned annularly about the first part, whereby force exerted at the hernial canal is spread over a portion of the inside wall of the hernial cavity via the second part.
