Сomparison of biomechanical properties of non-absorbable and partially absorbable mesh implants used in surgery for urinary incontinence and genital prolapse: experimental study

open access: yesВестник урологии, 2023
Introduction. The amount of non-absorbable synthetic material used in the surgical treatment of pelvic organ prolapse and stress urinary incontinence has been shown to directly correlate with the risks of mesh-associated complications.

Biomechanical Properties of Absorbable Implants in Finger Fractures

open access: yesJournal of Hand Surgery, 1998
The mechanical rigidity of five different methods of pin fixation in two proximal phalangeal fracture models was studied and absorbable implants were compared with metallic implants in a biomechanical cadaver study. Thirty phalanges were tested in apex palmar bending, compression and torsion.

The impact of bacterial contamination on the host response towards fully absorbable poly-4-hydroxybutyrate and nonabsorbable polypropylene pelvic floor implants

open access: yesMaterials Today Bio, 2022
Polypropylene (PP) implants for the vaginal surgical correction of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) are known for adverse events, like vaginal or visceral exposures. It is hypothesized that this is a result of a prolonged inflammatory response.

Stress-absorbing elements in dental implants [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1990
By means of finite element analysis, calculations, were made of the stress-distribution in bone around implants with and without stress-absorbing elements. A freestanding implant and an implant, it was concluded the variation in the E-modulus of the stress-absorbing element had no effect on the stresses in bone.
