Bovine Pericardium Patches

Due to its characteristics of easy handling, suturability and hemostasis compared with synthetic patches, the bovine pericardial patches have became an excellent alternative for a wide spectrum of clinical uses. The superior biocompatibility enables excellent host tissue incorporation without the need of special sutures or needles. Bovine Pericardial Patches SURGIFOC® are cross-linked with glutaraldehyde in a controlled environment that preserves its natural collagen structures. This procedure enhances the mechanical strength of the tissue while maintaining its superior flexibility.
