“…This suggests that the presence of synthetic mesh as a foreign body may prolong the inflammatory phase especially with the collagen-coated mesh. Ultrasound features have proven that degeneration of the collagen barrier may take longer than expected, and integration of collagen-coated mesh could occur up to 1 year8. So, even if the collagen-coated mesh was less integrated in the vaginal wall16, the inflammatory reaction was prolonged which allows one to propose that adverse events such as delayed infection, mesh erosion and even the LUTS observed in clinical setting might depend on the duration of the integration process in the collagen-coated mesh.…”

“…Mesh coating with collagen has been mainly investigated in animal studies showing positive effects on biocompatibility [38][39][40][41]. However, this approach has not shown convincing results for the treatment of anterior vaginal wall prolapse when applying it in humans [42,43].…”
