## Indications for use
The PARIETEXTM Optimized Composite mesh is used for the reinforcement of tissues during surgical repair. It is indicated for the treatment of incisional hernias, abdominal wall repair and parietal (i.e. pertaining to the walls) reinforcement of tissues. The non-absorbable three-dimensional polyester mesh provides long term reinforcement of soft tissues. On the opposite side, the absorbable hydrophilic film minimizes tissue attachment to the mesh in case of direct contact with the viscera.
