Characteristics of the fibroplasia and collagen expression in the abdominal wall after implant of the polypropylene mesh and polypropylene/polyglecaprone mesh in rats

Abstract: The gain in resistance of the polypropylene mesh is regular and ascending, whereas the polypropylene/poliglecaprone is not regular. The final resistance of both meshes is similar; the collagen density increases over time, and show the same inflammatory potential.

“…Porosity is another key element regarding the expected tissue reaction [4]. The pores have to be wider than 75 µm in diameter to allow a proper macrophageal, fibroblastic and new blood vessel growth, as well as to let new fibers of collagen to engulf the mesh.…”

“…Type I and type III collagen densities were increased in both groups however there were no significant differences in polypropilene and polypropylene/poliglecaprone group. 20 However collagen type I/III ratio and total collagen density were decreased in most incisional hernia patients, Meyer et al didn't report any differences for the average percent area of collagen (type I + type III) and the density of it. 21 This study contradict the other studies.The other important issue of incisional hernia repair is the layer for repair.…”

“…Biondo-Simões et al . 26 carried out a comparative experimental study in Wistar rats with pre-peritoneal implants using two different types of mesh for correction of defects induced in the abdominal wall with maintenance of the integrity of the parietal peritoneum. They used a heavy-weight polypropylene mesh and a partially absorbable mesh composed of lightweight polypropylene with polyglecaprone.…”
