Abstract:
Surgical mesh has been in use for urogynecological surgeries for a long, but they come with their own side effect profile and maybe life-altering consequences. We discuss a novel method of management of mesh erosion and infection in a patient with mesh sacrocolpopexy.
Insights
Surgical mesh used in urogynecological procedures can cause severe side effects like erosion and infection. This study presents a new management approach for these mesh complications following sacrocolpopexy surgery.
Area of Science:
- Urogynecology
- Surgical Innovation
- Medical Device Complications
Background:
- Surgical mesh is widely used for pelvic organ prolapse repair.
- Mesh implantation carries risks including erosion and infection, potentially leading to severe patient morbidity.
- Sacrocolpopexy is a common procedure utilizing surgical mesh.
