Porcine small intestinal submucosa graft

Acellular, resorbable biologic sheet derived from porcine intestinal submucosa.

How it is used

Covers the tunical defect after plaque incision or excision in Peyronie's disease surgery.

Clinical tip

Being a non-autologous material, it avoids donor-site morbidity on the patient, unlike fascia or dermal grafts.
