Impact of a prophylactic mesh on the biomechanics of abdominal wall closure: an animal study
The use of a PPM to reinforce suture was found to better restore the biomechanical properties to the midline of the AW post midline incision. Further investigations are needed to correlate the findings of this study with clinical outcomes, especially long-term recurrence rates.
