Said to be faster healing than mesh. Appears to bond and possibly a much better hold. If this can work it's revolutionary and could possible cut down not just recovery times but improve the efficacy of most surgeries. This might help?

I’m surprised they haven’t yet developed a medical-grade super glue for alot of the internal stuff like this. Maybe this ‘spider web’ is that invention!
