“…Anecdotally, the solution Permacol TM is stored in has been described akin to feline urine. When examined in patients for the prevention of parastomal herniation, 15 patients had Permacol TM placed in the anterior abdominal wall [21] and 11 patients underwent stoma implant biopsies. At a median of 7 months, the human cellular response demonstrates minimal inflammatory response and minimal degradation of the bioprosthetic material.…”

Repair of congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) continues to pose a dilemma for the pediatric surgeon. While the management of CDH has evolved from surgical urgency to delayed repair after medical optimization with substantial improvements in mortality, morbidity continues to perplex clinicians. Significant morbidity occurs with recurrence, re-recurrence and complications such as obstructions, principally with mesh repair. When primary closure is not possible, mesh repair is indicated. While there are several non-absorbable prosthetic, absorbable biosynthetic and composite mesh types available, the ideal mesh remains elusive. In this article, we reviewed the current materials, reported advantages, and animal and clinical studies of non-absorbable prosthetic, absorbable biosynthetic and composite mesh. However, adequate comparative data are lacking, leaving a wide void for future animal models and clinical studies.

“…Crosslinking increases the resistance of collagen to enzymatic breakdown [11], but still permits cellular and vascular ingrowth [12][13][14]. Clinical data on Permacol's effectiveness in closing abdominal wall defects have been encouraging.…”

“…Multiple tissue as well as mesh techniques have been described to reinforce a weakened floor postpelvic surgery. [14][15][16][17][18][19] If sufficient levator muscle tissue remains, the pelvic floor is reapproximated with multiple absorbable sutures. Other ways of reinforcing the pelvic floor in cases where musculature cannot be closed include myocutaneous flaps and mesh techniques.…”
