Electrospun nanofiber mesh with connective tissue growth factor and mesenchymal stem cells for pelvic floor repair: Long‐term study

Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part B: Applied Biomaterials, Volume 111, Issue 2, Page 392-401, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) affects many women, with an estimated lifetime risk of surgical intervention of 18.7%. There is a need for alternative approaches as the use of synthetic nondegradable mesh was stopped due to severe adverse events, and as current methods for pelvic floor repair have high POP recurrence rates.
