Acellular dermal graft for repair of abdominal wall defects in rabbits

“…Adhesions between the reconstructed site and intraperitoneal organs after hernioplasty with different prosthetic materials have been reported 15,44 . Uniform covering of prosthetic material with a layer of white connective tissue of variable thickness, as seen in the present study, was also observed by Shoukry 36 .…”

Hernioplasty with polypropylene implant after an abdominal trauma of a pregnant cat

“…This is due to a greater availability of polypropylene mesh, is one of the most well studied techniques and most commonly used to solve the problem (SHOUKRY, 1997). There are few studies concerning different types of biological materials, making many professional no longer play, despite the increasing number of procedures performed with these materials both in human and veterinary medicine (OLIVEIRA et al, 2009;SINGH et al ., 2008).…”

Biomaterials for Hernia Repair in Animals; a Review

“…Synthetic and biological materials can be used as prosthesis for the repair of large abdominal wall defects. The different synthetic materials used are polyester fabric (Shoukry et al, 1997), nylon, Dacron and stainless steel (Kanade et al, 1988;George and Mohammad, 1993), cotton mesh (Kanade and Kumar,1990), mosquito net mesh (Stephenson and Kingsnorth, 2011), vicryl mesh (Buchsbaum et al, 1985), polypropylene mesh (Kassam et al, 2014), expanded polytetrafluro ethylene (PTFE) (Kennedy and Matyas, 1999;Gillion et al, 1999), mersilene mesh (Riply and Mc Carnon,1994), Carbon fibers and Carbon sheet (Gangwar, 2002), oxidized generated cellulose, polyethylene glycol and hylan G-F20 (Altinli et al, 2011). A synthetic nonabsorbable material Polypropylene mesh (PP), is the most widely used material for abdominal wall replacement and reinforcement during hernia repair (Bastos et al, 2006).…”
