Endometriosis and its consequences – an underestimated problem. We are committed to tackling it.
Over 190 million women worldwide suffer from endometriosis. Chronic pain, unfulfilled desire to have children – the burden is enormous. One of the serious consequences of this disease and the often necessary surgical treatment are adhesions.
These adhesions are strands of tissue that form between organs or between organs and the peritoneum. These adhesions can bind organs together and restrict their mobility or distort their structure and thus restrict their function. This often results in pain, digestive problems or even infertility.
Adhesions occur particularly frequently after surgery, but are also a direct consequence of endometriosis itself. Our product 4DryField®PH was developed to specifically prevent postoperative adhesions.
At PlantTec Medical, we are committed to optimizing endometriosis surgery and raising awareness of the fact that it is possible to reduce postoperative adhesions and thus also their negative effects.
