Surgical mesh for ventral incisional hernia repairs:Understanding mesh design [PDF]
Plastic Surgery, 2016 Surgical mesh has become an indispensable tool in hernia repair to improve outcomes and reduce costs; however, efforts are constantly being undertaken in mesh development to overcome postoperative complications. Common complications include infection, pain, adhesions, mesh extrusion and hernia recurrence.

Macroporous Surgical Mesh from a Natural Cocoon Composite
ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering, 2022 Recently, traditional polymer-based surgical meshes have drawn unwanted attention as a result of host tissue complications arising from infection, biocompatibility, and mechanical compatibility. Seeking an alternative solution, we present a hierarchically structured nanofibrous surgical mesh derived from the naturally woven cocoon of the Japanese giant

Surgical meshes – The search continues
Current Medicine Research and Practice, 2018 Abstract The surgical prostheses used in hernia repair have only evolved since their conception and the industry is still expanding. The purpose of placement of a mesh is to restore the normal anatomy which will prevent recurrence without reducing abdominal wall compliance.

The regulatory ancestral network of surgical meshes
PLOS ONE, 2018 All surgical meshes entering the U.S. market have been cleared for clinical use by the 510(k) process of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), in which devices simply require proof of "substantial equivalence" to predicate devices, without the need for clinical trials. However, recalled meshes associated with adverse effects may, indirectly, continue

Biodegradation of Surgical Polypropylene Meshes
The FASEB Journal, 2019 Surgical meshes of a variety of materials, such as polypropylene, are commonly used in many procedures to support tissues. From our previous studies on polypropylene meshes, samples of mesh removed from patients often demonstrated biodegradation proportional to the amount of time that had passed since implantation.

Conservative surgical management of mesh erosion following abdominal sacrocolpopexy
Journal of Mid-life Health, 2020 Abdominal sacrocolpopexy (ASC) provides global support to the prolapsed vault. Hence, it is one of the successful procedures done along with pelvic organ prolapse to prevent future vault prolapse. Mostly, the synthetic mesh is used for the ASC. As, it provides a better strength.

Hernia mesh infection: a surgical disaster
International Surgery Journal, 2016 Mesh infection is one of most disastrous complication following hernia surgery. The consequences are more complex especially following a laparoscopic hernia repair operation. Understanding the pathophysiology of mesh infections is pivotal in adopting preventive strategies.

Mesh salvage following deep surgical site infection
International Journal of Abdominal Wall and Hernia Surgery, 2020 BACKGROUND: Following herniorrhaphy, deep surgical site infections with mesh involvement (dSSI-MI) traditionally necessitate mesh removal, putting patients at risk for hernia recurrence. There is no consensus about managing infected mesh, as salvage strategies are poorly reported.
