Abstract
Background: Effective laparoscopic ventral herniorrhaphy usually mandates the use of an intraperitoneal prosthetic. Visceral adhesions and changes in prosthetics’ textile characteristics may complicate the repairs, especially in the long-term. The aim of this study was to compare the adhesion formation, tissue ingrowth, and textile characteristics 1 year after intra-abdominal placement of the common prosthetic meshes. Materials and Methods: Forty (4×4 cm) meshes were sutured using absorbable suture to an intact peritoneum in 20 New Zealand white rabbits.
