Abdominal Wall Hernia Mesh Repair

Abstract: Objective. The purposes of this study were (1) to review the sonographic in vitro and in vivo appearances of mesh for surgical repair of abdominal wall hernias, (2) to describe sonographic techniques and discuss the limitations of sonography in evaluation of mesh hernia repair, and (3) to illustrate common complications after mesh repair shown with sonography. Methods. We identified interesting cases from the musculoskeletal sonographic database as well as from the teaching files of the authors, with surgical … Show more

“…Hypothetically, resorbable materials seem preferential over permanent meshes that remain in the body, as they might reduce fear and anxiety, and possibly reduce chronic pain development and sinus formation due to the occasionally described shrinkage of permanent synthetic mesh products [31]. Resorbable meshes might additionally prevent the risk of developing the (rare) complication of enterocutaneous fistula [32][33][34].…”

“…The shape of the mesh may be either wavy or straight depending on the method of fixation and time elapsed from surgery (Figure 5). 23 Specifically, at the immediate postoperative period following open surgery or laparo‐endoscopic repair without mesh fixation, the mesh may obtain a wavy appearance which should not be interpreted as pathology 23,24 . Conversely, in the long‐term following open surgery or after laparo‐endoscopic repair with mesh fixation, the implant usually appears as a straight line 23 …”
