ARTISYN™ Y-Shaped Mesh is used as a bridging material for sacrocolposuspension/sacrocolpopexy (laparotomy or laparoscopic approach) where surgical treatment of vaginal vault prolapse is warranted. ARTISYN™ is comprised of both absorbable fibers that absorb over an 84-day period, reducing the amount of mesh by approx 46%, and non-absorbable fibers that provide permanent support.

The mesh in ARTISYN™ Y-Shaped Mesh evolves over time with less tissue-mesh contracture post integration.116,169
In animal studies it was shown that the mesh material used in ARTISYN™ demonstrated significantly less tissue-mesh contracture vs. another lightweight mesh post integration.169 It also showed the mesh material in ARTISYN™ remained pliable.116,118
