PelviSoft BioMesh augmentation of rectocele repair: the initial clinical experience in 35 patients

Jeffrey R Dell et al. Int Urogynecol J Pelvic Floor Dysfunct. 2005 Jan-Feb.

Abstract

Graft materials have been utilized in the repair of posterior vaginal wall defects to enhance anatomical and functional results, and to improve long-term outcomes. We report on our initial series of 35 patients treated with porcine dermal acellular collagen matrix BioMesh (PelviSoft BioMesh, CR Bard, Cranston, R.I., USA), which has alleviated problems with early postoperative vaginal mucosal dehiscence and delayed healing experienced with the use of other graft materials in the posterior vaginal wall.
