Comparison of biomechanical properties of light mesh endoprostheses with different structural characteristics.

Three types of light mesh endoprostheses with different jersey structure were implanted into the anterior abdominal walls of 18 rabbits. Changes in the geometrical size and mechanical properties of the prostheses detected 3 months after implantation largely depended on the jersey structure and distribution of mature connective tissue in the structure of the material.

Experimental study of the impact of the textile structure of mesh endoprostheses for the efficiency of reconstruction of the anterior abdominal wall.

Endoprostheses made from knitted fabric of 3 loop types were used for hernioplasty in rats. Biocompatibility of implanted textile constructions was evaluated after 6 months. The intensity of inflammatory reaction and types of complications in animals depended on the loop type and method of finishing of the mesh endoprosthesis tissue.
