Contigen® Bard® Collagen
Contigen® Bard® Collagen Implant is a sterile, cross-linked, bovine-derived collagen bulking therapy indicated for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence due to Intrinsic Sphincter Deficiency (ISD).
The Contigen® Bard® Collagen Implant collagen forms a soft network of fibers that remains pliable within the body tissue and induces new tissue growth at the injection site. Because the implant is natural collagen protein, the implant will break down and be reabsorbed as the body changes over time. Over 10,000 surgeons are registered to use Contigen® Bard® Collagen Implant, and over 225,000 procedures have been performed worldwide.

Uretex® Self-Anchoring Urethral Support System
The innovative, self-anchoring design of this next generation polypropylene mesh provides maximum, tension-free urethral stability. Uretex® mesh anchors to surrounding tissue without the need for sutures or bone anchors, and its mesh design promotes quick ingrowth and dramatically reduces the risk of inflammation and infection.

Uretex® TO Trans-Obturator Urethral Support System
All the benefits of Bard's trusted Uretex® Self-Anchoring Urethral Support System for the surgical treatment of Stress Urinary Incontinence are combined with the safety and efficiency of a Trans-Obturator implant method.

A specially-designed introducer system maximizes procedural safety and efficiency and minimizes patient risk.

Pelvicol® Acellular Collagen Matrix
