“…Clinical presentations are variable and related to the organ involved. Migration of knitted propylene mesh into the urinary bladder after laparoscopic left direct and indirect inguinal repair has been reported to cause haematuria [3,4] and recurrent urinary tract infections. One report noted mesh plug migration into the scrotum after laparoscopic hernia repair that presented as a tender scrotal mass [5].…”

“…Along with this, several reports of resultant enteric [7] and enterovesical fistulas [8] have been reported. Successful colonoscopic removal of a migrated mesh from the colon at the splenic flexure has also been reported [3]. While the aetiology is unknown for mesh migration but based on the significant complications reported, the authors hypothesized that the method of fixation, as well as type of mesh, may have contributed to this problem.…”

Incisional hernia formation following secondary to abdominal surgeries is a common complication. Laparoscopic mesh repair recently has gained significant publicity for such hernia repair. However, utilizing polypropylene mesh for incisional hernia repair, can lead to variety of complications from minor postoperative hematoma and seroma to mesh rejection and fistula formation. However, mesh migration is an infrequent occurrence and has been rarely reported in the literature. Additionally, review of literature shows mesh migration to urinary bladder, scrotum and caecal lumen. We present a case of delayed partialtrans mural mesh migration from the abdominal wall into colonic lumen, following laparoscopic mesh repair of abdominal incisional hernia. This is the first case of mesh migration that has been successfully managed conservatively.

“…Le délai entre l'hernioplastie et la migration de la plaque est variable, allant de quelques mois à plusieurs années. Des facteurs de risque ont été mentionnés dans la littérature : l'abord laparoscopique, l'absence de drainage postopéra-toire, la plénitude vésicale au cours de l'hernioplastie 17,18 . Le diagnostic n'est pas souvent facile à cause de la réac-tion à corps étranger induite par l'irritation causée par la prothèse.…”

“…La présence de lésions aux organes avoisinants exige un traitement. Dans le cas d'extrusion intestinale, une résection protégée ou non par stomie selon les conditions locales est une approche classique 17 . Une réparation sans exérèse semble possible mais hasardeuse.…”

RésuméLa migration d'une prothèse synthétique pour hernie abdominale ou inguinale est un incident rare. Elle peut survenir aussi bien en intrapéritonéal qu'en sous-péritonéal. La migration intrapéritonéale entraîne un risque d'obstruction intestinale et d'infection pouvant menacer le pronostic vital. La migration endovésicale est beaucoup plus rare. La plaque en endovésical se comporte comme un corps étranger avec risque de calcification et de cystite. Le diagnostic différentiel se pose surtout avec un calcul vésical ou une tumeur de la vessie. Devant la prédominance de signes irritatifs non spécifiques, le diagnostic repose sur les observations radiologiques mais surtout cystoscopiques. Le traitement est essentiellement endoscopique, par la résection de l'extrémité prolabée en endovésical.

“…If a migrated mesh plug enters the peritoneal cavity, it may potentially perforate the bowel as a further complication. Other complications include migration of mesh and the mesh plug, [21][22][23] intestinal obstruction, perforation and fistula formation, [24][25][26] strangulated hernias, and a burst abdomen. …”

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 or other cross-sectional imaging corroboration. Results. A compilation of the sonographic appearances of mesh used for anterior abdominal wall and inguinal hernia repair and complications diagnosable by sonography is presented. Conclusions. Sonography can be effective for evaluation of mesh and complications after mesh repair of anterior abdominal wall and inguinal hernias.
