Characterization of the Mechanical Strength, Resorption Properties, and  Histologic Characteristics of a Fully Absorbable Material  (Poly-4-hydroxybutyrate—PHASIX Mesh)  in a Porcine Model of Hernia Repair

<table>(a) PHASIX Mesh comprised of a fully resorbable polymer (poly-4-hydroxybutyrate, P4HB) monofilament knitted into a flat sheet configuration. (b) P4HB Plug comprised of a fully resorbable polymer (poly-4-hydroxybutyrate, P4HB) monofilament preformed into a three-dimensional shape with a fluted outer layer and inner layers or ‘‘petals” attached at the tip.</table>
