Ventral Wall Defect Silo Bags
Since 1997, clinicians around the world have used the Bentec Ventral Wall Defect Silo Bags for staged reductions of congenital ventral wall defects (gastroschisis, CDH or omphalocele) in their neonatal patients.
The Bentec Silo Bag provides a sutureless approach that can be placed in the NICU when primary reduction & closure of these defects is not feasible.
Our transparent, soft, flexible Silicone Silo Bags cover & protect the visceral content while providing direct visualization of the bowel.
The Bentec Silo Bag allows the clinician to gradually reduce the visceral contents back into the abdominal cavity by a combination of manual manipulation and gravity.
