Abstract
Biomaterials and their applications are perhaps among the most dynamic areas of research within the field of biomedicine. Any advance in this topic translates to an improved quality of life for recipient patients. One application of a biomaterial is the repair of an abdominal wall defect whether congenital or acquired. In the great majority of cases requiring surgery, the defect takes the form of a hernia. Over the past few years, biomaterials designed with this purpose in mind have been gradually evolving in parallel with new developments in the different surgical techniques. In consequence, the classic polymer prosthetic materials have been the starting point for structural modifications or new prototypes that have always strived to accommodate patients’ needs. This evolving process has pursued both improvements in the wound repair process depending on the implant interface in the host and in the material’s mechanical properties at the repair site. This last factor is important considering that this site—the abdominal wall—is a dynamic structure subjected to considerable mechanical demands. This review aims to provide a narrative overview of the different biomaterials that have been gradually introduced over the years, along with their modifications as new surgical techniques have unfolded.

Postoperative ileus after laparoscopic primary and incisional abdominal hernia repair with intraperitoneal mesh (DynaMesh®-IPOM versus Parietex™ Composite): a single institution experience. Langenbecks Arch Surg 2020; 406:209-218. [PMID: 32504204 DOI: 10.1007/s00423-020-01898-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2019] [Accepted: 05/17/2020] [Indexed: 12/01/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Laparoscopic primary or incisional abdominal hernia repair with intraperitoneal mesh placement is a well-accepted and safe technique. Evidence for complications however remains inconclusive, and little is known about the occurrence of postoperative ileus secondary to postoperative intra-abdominal adhesions with different types of IPOM meshes used. Therefore, we retrospectively compared the occurrence of postoperative ileus between two of the different meshes used in our center. METHODS Three hundred seventy-five patients who underwent ventral hernia repair with intraperitoneal mesh placement, either with a DynaMesh®-IPOM (FEG Textiltechnik mbH, Aachen, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany) or a Parietex™ Composite mesh (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN, USA), at the Heilig-Hart Hospital in Lier (Antwerp, Belgium) between 2012 and 2017 were retrospectively compared with regard to the occurrence of postoperative ileus until 6 weeks postoperatively. Baseline demographics and clinical data up to 6 weeks postoperatively of the patients in the two mesh groups are provided. RESULTS The DynaMesh®-IPOM mesh group was associated with a significantly higher incidence of postoperative ileus compared with the Parietex™ Composite mesh group with a cutoff limit at postoperative day 1 (n = 17, 6.8% vs. n = 0, 0.0%; P = 0.003) and postoperative day 4 (n = 13, 5.2% vs. n = 0, 0.0%, P = 0.006), even with a mesh surface area of ≤ 300 cm2 and when both meshes were fixated with the same method of fixation (Securestrap™) with a cutoff limit for postoperative ileus at postoperative day 1 (n = 4, 7.7% vs. n = 0, 0.0%; P = 0.013) and postoperative day 4 (n = 3, 5.8% vs. n = 0, 0.0%, P = 0.040). Of the 17 patients with a postoperative ileus, 9 (52.9%) had a suspicion of adhesive small bowel obstruction on CT scan (P = 0.033) with definitive confirmation of small bowel adhesions with the DynaMesh®-IPOM mesh at laparoscopy in 2 patients. CONCLUSION Our results confirm current literature available regarding postoperative ileus secondary to postoperative intra-abdominal adhesions with the DynaMesh®-IPOM mesh. However, further research with well-designed, multicenter randomized controlled studies to evaluate the use and related complications of these meshes is needed.

Could we reduce adhesions to the intra-abdominal mesh in the first week? Experimental study with different methods of fixation. Hernia 2019; 24:1245-1251. [PMID: 31338720 DOI: 10.1007/s10029-019-02005-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2019] [Accepted: 07/07/2019] [Indexed: 10/26/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Adhesion formation is a major problem when a mesh is exposed to intraabodminal viscera, with potential severe complications (bowel occlusion, fistulas or abscesses). New methods for preventing adhesions from a polypropylene mesh placed intra-abdominally or to solve difficult situations, such as when the peritoneum cannot be closed during a TAPP repair for an inguinal hernia, are still being seeked. This study mimics in an animal model a situation that can be found in clinical practice during laparoscopic inguinal hernioplasty. A polypropylene mesh could be exposed to the intra-abdominal cavity even when the peritoneum is closed due to different circumstances, with no options to guarantee the prosthetic material of being exposed to the intrabdominal viscera. Different options have been suggested to solve these situations, being proposed in this study to cover the visceral surface of the mesh with an absorbable sponge containing thrombin, fibrinogen, and clotting factors (Tachosil®, Nycomed, Takeda, Osaka, Japan), to assess its use as a barrier to prevent postoperative adhesion formation. MATERIAL AND METHODS Thirty Wistar white rats (300-450 mg) were included in this study as experimental animals, being randomized into three groups (A, B, and C). We performed a bilateral prosthetic repair with conventional polypropylene mesh (2 × 2 cm, 82 kD). Prosthesis fixation was performed as follows. Group A: absorbable suture; group B: metal staples; group C: metal tackers. A piece of insulating absorbable sponge (Tachosil® 5 × 5 cm) was placed to cover the visceral surface of mesh placed at the right side of each animal. After 10 days, we performed a gross examination (by laparoscopy and laparotomy), measuring the quantity and the quality of the adhesions. Samples were taken for histopathological analysis. RESULTS Tachosil®-treated prostheses showed a statistically significant decrease in the quality of the adhesion found (p < 0.05). In addition, a smaller quantity of adhesions was identified in barrier-treated animals, although this lacked statistical significance. The histologic analysis showed no significant differences: more edema with the untreated mesh and increased angiogenesis and a lower degree of necrosis in mesh covered with Tachosil®. CONCLUSIONS The use of Tachosil® as a barrier material led to the absence of strong adhesions as it prevented direct contact between the mesh and the internal organs, preventing major problems associated with strong adhesions.

Evaluation of synthetic reticular hybrid meshes designed for intraperitoneal abdominal wall repair: Preclinical and in vitro behavior. PLoS One 2019; 14:e0213005. [PMID: 30811503 PMCID: PMC6392302 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0213005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/09/2018] [Accepted: 02/13/2019] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction Reticular hybrid meshes represent an alternative material for intraperitoneal repair of abdominal hernias. These consist of a reticular mesh coated or interwoven/knitted with inert materials. This study assesses the performance of two reticular polypropylene-containing hybrid meshes, TiMESH (coated with titanium) and DynaMesh (interwoven with polyvinylidene fluoride), in vitro, as well as their efficiency in adhesion prevention and tissue incorporation in an intraperitoneal model. Methods The mesothelialization capacity of TiMESH and DynaMesh was evaluated in vitro and compared to that of Surgipro (reticular bare polypropylene) and Preclude (laminar expanded polytetrafluoroethylene). Mesh fragments were placed on the intact parietal peritoneum of New Zealand white rabbits (n = 24), and laparoscopy performed 7 days post-surgery. Fourteen days post-implantation, adhesions were evaluated and host tissue incorporation, macrophage response, collagen expression (immunohistochemistry/RT-PCR) and neoperitoneum formation assessed. Adhesions and omental tissue were also examined. Results Mesh pores in reticular meshes were devoid of cells in the in vitro study. TiMESH, DynaMesh and Surgipro showed similar adhesion rates at 7/14 days and optimal tissue integration, with significant differences in comparison to Preclude. The greatest presence of macrophages was observed for TiMESH and was significant versus that for Preclude. Hybrid meshes revealed significantly higher collagen 1 mRNA expression in implants, with no differences in the levels of collagen 3. Omental samples from animals with a reticular mesh showed significantly greater collagen 1 mRNA levels. Conclusions The reticular structure of a mesh limits the formation of a continuous mesothelial monolayer in vitro, regardless of its composition. The presence of titanium as a coating or polyvinylidene fluoride interwoven with polypropylene in a reticular structure did not prevent adhesions. The hybrid meshes showed proper integration and an increase in the mRNA Col 1 levels in the implant area compared to Surgipro or Preclude.

Abstract
Hernia incidence has been observed since ancient time. Advancement in the medical textile industry came up with the variety of mesh materials to repair hernia, but none of them are without complications including recurrence of hernia. Therefore individuals once developed with the hernia could not lead a healthy and comfortable life. This drawn attention of surgeons, patients, researchers and industry to know the exact mechanism behind its development, complications and recurrence. Recent investigations highlighted the role of genetic factors and connective tissue disorders being the reason for the development of hernia apart from the abnormal pressure that is known to develop during other disease conditions. This review discusses different mesh materials, their advantages and disadvantages and their biological response after its implantation.

Abstract
PURPOSE Demonstrate that the rabbit may be used in the training of surgery, in addition to present its perioperative care. METHODS Thirty two animals, with age and weight, respectively, from 3 to 5.5 months old and 3000 to 4200 grams, were undergone different periods of pre-operative fasting, exclusive intramuscular anesthesia (ketamine+xylazine), laparotomy with total gastrectomy and total splenectomy. It was dosed the pre-operative (initial) and post-surgical (end) serum blood glucose, in addition to quantify the gastric content after the resection of the part. RESULTS The anesthetical-surgical procedure presented a mortality rate of 3.125% (1:32) and a morbidity rate of 6.25% (2:32). It was evidenced an initial mean blood glucose = 199.4 mg/dl and the end = 326.1 mg/dl. In spite of extended fasting (minimum of 2 hours for the absolute fasting and maximum of 8.5 hours for liquids, and 20.5 hours for solids) all animals presented at the end of the surgical procedure any gastric content and a blood glucose increase. Those with fasting for liquids and solids when compared to the quantity of solid gastric content, presented a moderate negative degree of correlation. CONCLUSION The rabbit is a good model to be used in training of surgery, with a low morbi-mortality, able to be anesthetized intramuscularly, with no need of pre-operative fasting and does not present hypoglycemia even with the extended fasting period.

Abstract
The use of polypropylene (PP) mesh for pelvic floor repair has been increasing dramatically over the past decade; however, tissue response in humans has not been extensively studied. This review discusses PP mesh and postimplantation host tissue response. Emphasis is placed on studies investigating the relationship between individual mesh properties and specific responses. There is an immediate inflammatory response after PP mesh implantation that lays the framework for tissue ingrowth and subsequent mesh integration. This response varies based on physical properties of individual mesh, such as pore size, weight, coatings, bacterial colonization, and biofilm production.

Evaluation of a knitted polytetrafluoroethylene mesh placed intraperitoneally in a New Zealand white rabbit model. Surg Endosc 2012; 26:1884-91.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The intraperitoneal application of surgical mesh remains a controversial issue because of possible complications, especially adhesion and fistula formation. This study aimed to assess the potential of a knitted polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) mesh for intraabdominal implantation. METHODS Twenty-eight 5 × 5 cm samples of knitted macroporous PTFE mesh and light-weight polypropylene mesh (LW-PP) were implanted intraperitoneally in 14 New Zealand white rabbits in a randomized manner and fixed using eight polypropylene stitches. After 90 days, the adhesion formation, adhesion score, shrinkage, strength of fixation to the abdominal wall, and histologic biocompatibility were assessed. RESULTS No intraoperative or anesthesia-related complications or mesh infection were recorded. The average area covered by adhesions was 4.7 ± 7.2% for the PTFE and 36.4 ± 36.1% for the LW-PP. The median adhesion score was 0 for the PTFE and 8 for the LW-PP. Shrinkage was 36.9 ± 12.9% for the PTFE mesh and 12.6 ± 8.72% for the LW-PP. The mesh-to-abdominal wall fixation strength was almost the same for both materials (PTFE 3.6 ± 1.9 vs. LW-PP 3.6 ± 2.9). The inflammatory cell count was almost the same for the two groups, with no statistically significant difference. The width of the inner granuloma was equal (PTFE 10.5 ± 0.9 vs. LW-PP 11.1 ± 0.9). The outer granuloma was reduced significantly in the PTFE group (PTFE 23.0 ± 2.1 vs. LW-PP 33.6 ± 7.9). One of the animals in the PTFE group died on postoperative day 12 because of ileus. The reason was an adhesion of the small intestine to the polypropylene fixation stitch, which caused small intestine strangulation. CONCLUSIONS The knitted PTFE mesh induces fewer intraperitoneal adhesions of lower density than the light-weight polypropylene mesh. The strength of the knitted PTFE mesh fixation to the abdominal wall is comparable with that of the light-weight polypropylene mesh, but the shrinkage is greater. The biocompatibility of the knitted PTFE mesh is comparable with that of the light-weight polypropylene implant.

Abstract
OBJETIVO: Avaliar a incorporação de telas de poliéster revestido em uma de suas faces por colágeno (Parietex, Covidien) e polipropileno recoberto por ácido poliglicólico (Optilene Mesh Elastic e Safil, BBD Aesculap) no reparo de defeitos da parede ventral de coelhos avaliando a cicatrização no aspecto macroscópico, o depósito de colágeno e a imunomarcação tecidual pelos anticorpos MMP-1, MMP-8 e MMP-13. MÉTODOS: Utilizaram-se 16 coelhos, divididos em dois grupos de oito animais, avaliados após eutanásia após 30 e 60 dias de pós-operatório. Os animais foram submetidos à realização de dois defeitos simétricos na parede ventral do abdome, à direita e esquerda da linha alba, que compreendendo todos os folhetos musculares e o peritônio. O reparo dos defeitos foi realizado mediante implante intraperitoneal de dois modelos diferentes de telas. Utilizou-se a tela de poliéster revestido com camada protetora de colágeno (grupo controle) e a tela de polipropilene revestido com malha de ácido poliglicólico (manufaturacao própria, grupo de experimentacao). A avaliacao constou de aspectos clínicos, achados macroscópicos, análise dos colágenos tipos I/III e avaliação imunoistoquímica de metaloproteinases. RESULTADOS: Os resultados da avaliacao clínica e os parâmetros macroscópicos foram semelhantes entre os grupos. 50% dos animais do grupo Parietex tiveram ausência de aderencias intraperitoneais a no 30° dia de pós-operatrório. Em ambos os grupos observou-se reducao das aderências entre o 30° e o 60° dias de pós-operatório, contudo sem diferenca estatística. As aderências observadas foram classificadas principalmente de frouxas. Nao se observou a ocorrencia de complicacoes envolvendo vísceras intraabdominais. No Grupo Parietex houve a ocorrência de formacao de ulceracao da pele que recobria a tela em quatro animais, em comparacao com um no grupo de experimentacao. No Grupo Parietex foi observada uma insuficiencia de reparo após 60 dias. Quanto ao depósito do colágeno tipos I e III, nao houve diferenca significativa entre os grupos. Os resultados da imunoistoquímica referentes aos anticorpos MMP-1 e MMP-8 também não demonstraram diferença significativa entre as telas. CONCLUSÃO: As duas telas pesquisadas obtiveram resultados semelhantes tanto nos aspectos macro como nos microscópicos, podendo ser consideradas semelhantes quanto ao reparo de defeitos cirúrgicos da parede ventral do abdome em coelhos.

Abstract
RACIONAL: Na cirurgia geral, as correções das hérnias da parede abdominal ocupam lugar de destaque e, cada vez mais, as indicações e usos de telas têm aumentado devido aos melhores resultados. OBJETIVO: Comparar as correções de orifícios produzidos em parede abdominal com telas Parietex® e Surgisis® em contato direto com as vísceras abdominais. MÉTODO: Para os experimentos foram utilizadas 16 coelhas adultas jovens e produção de defeitos triangulares de 2 cm de base por 2,5 cm de altura, comprometendo os planos músculo-aponeurótico-peritoniais da parede abdominal, nos flancos, simétricos à linha média que foram corrigidos com telas retangulares de 3 cm de base por 3,5 cm de altura. No lado direito usou-se tela Parietex® (poliéster/colágeno-polietilenoglicol-glicerol) e no lado esquerdo tela Surgisis® (submucosa intestinal suína). Na avaliação utilizaram-se parâmetros clínico-cirúrgicos, histológicos e imunoistoquímicos. Oito coelhas foram submetidas a eutanásia em 30 dias e as 8 restantes, em 60. Comparou-se a eficiência das duas telas. RESULTADOS: As duas telas provocaram erosões de pele e não ocorreu nenhum caso de hérnia incisional. As aderências ocorreram em todas as telas no primeiro mês e em menor grau e intensidade, no segundo mês; a retração delas foi de 1/3 do tamanho original; a Parietex® provocou menor processo inflamatório; não houve diferença significante de deposição de entre as duas telas; a deposição do colágeno tipo III foi mais intensa no segundo mês em ambas; na remodelação do colágeno a produção da enzima MMP8 foi maior na tela Parietex® no primeiro mês e a enzima MMP13 aumentou no segundo mês em ambas as telas, porém com significância apenas na Parietex®. CONCLUSÃO: As duas telas foram eficientes na correção de hérnias incisionais e com resultados semelhantes, sendo que a Parietex® apresentou menor processo inflamatório, maior quantidade de metaloproteinases MMP8 e MMP13 em relação à Surgisis®.

Abstract
Several factors must be considered in deciding which mesh to use for a ventral hernia repair. Open hernia repairs with no exposure of mesh to viscera can be performed with unprotected synthetic mesh, preferably a "lightweight" option. For open repair with high risk for fascial dehiscence and visceral exposure to mesh, and for open underlay repair and laparoscopic underlay repair, recommendations call for a tissue-separating mesh that prevents ingrowth of intra-abdominal contents into the mesh. Although no long-term data are available about biologic (acellular collagen scaffold) meshes, these may have good results when used in contaminated or well-drained infected fields, and do best when used according to the principles of a high-quality synthetic mesh repair (wide mesh overlap, frequent fixation points). Evidence is still insufficient to support the use of biologic materials for primary hernia repair.

Abstract
Abdominal wall defects that are amenable to direct fascial approximation are the indication for retromuscular mesh augmentation. Larger defects can be bridged with meshes used as abdominal wall substitution or with reconstructive flaps. Other options are indirect techniques to achieve primary preparation of the abdominal wall, either by mobilization of the abdominal wall muscles with the component separation method or by preoperative expansion of the abdominal cavity using a progressive pneumoperitoneum. Surgical repair of iatrogenic abdominal wall relaxations should combine plastic reconstruction with preperitoneal mesh implantation. Scientific evidence supporting any treatment option is weak, because few prospective, randomized trial data are available owing to the inhomogeneity of the patient population. Treatment of abdominal wall defects must therefore be proposed on an individual basis utilizing one or a combination of the techniques described.
