Despite high success rates in the treatment of urinary incontinence, complications related to the use of polypropylene mesh can not be neglected. Many innovations have been studied recently aiming to improve mesh's integration. In this fiel, the platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been used effectively in many areas of Medicine, improving wound repair, related to a high concentration of growt…
The use of synthetic meshes, specially the monofilament polypropylene mesh, has recently become the standart treatment of urinary incontinence and vaginal prolapses. Even though presenting high cure rates of up to 90%, complications related to integration issues, such as exposure or erosion of the mesh, can not be neglected. The collagen well known as an important immunoinflammatory mo…
The use of polypropylene mesh to repair urinary incontinence and vaginal prolapse has decrease recurrence and nowadays it became a very common option. However, it has also been related to specific complications such as vaginal erosions. Nitric Oxide can modulate angiogenesis, vasodilation and fibroblastic reaction. Experimentally, meshes coated with nitric oxide showed more angiogenesis a…
