All 5 synthetic sling materials produce similar tissue reactions beginning soon after implantation. Cadaveric fascia lata persisted in tissue with remarkable perifascial fibrosis at day 30. When comparing the 4 polypropylene mesh materials; the attachment capacity of TVT was superior and that of IVS was the least of the 4. TVT was statistically better than IVS at all data points. SPARC and hernia mesh provided results similar to those of TVT.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
