Abstract:

In this paper, we propose a novel mesh repairing method for repairing voids from several meshes to ensure a desired topological correctness. The input to our method is several closed and manifold meshes without labels. The basic idea of the method is to search for and repair voids based on a multi-labeled mesh data structure and the idea of graph theory. We propose the judgment rules of voids between the input meshes and the method of void repairing based on the specified model priorities. It consists of three steps: (a) converting the input meshes into a multi-labeled mesh; (b) searching for quasi-voids using the breadth-first searching algorithm and determining true voids via the judgment rules of voids; (c) repairing voids by modifying mesh labels. The method can repair the voids accurately and only few invalid triangular facets are removed. In general, the method can repair meshes with one hundred thousand facets in approximately one second on very modest hardware. Moreover, it can be easily extended to process large-scale polygon models with millions of polygons. The experimental results of several data sets show the reliability and performance of the void repairing method based on the multi-labeled triangular mesh.

Abstract:

The application of mesh to reconstruct pelvic floors is considered a state-of-the-art method for the treatment of pelvic floor dysfunction. Polypropylene (PP) is the most frequently used synthetic graft material in gynecology departments due to its good mechanical property and non-degradability. Pelvic repairing meshes are required to have good biocompatibility, stability and low shrinkage with sufficient softness. Meshes should also adhere to surrounding tissues to support pelvic organs after implantation. This work designed two kinds of lightweight PP macroporous meshes with different structures. The meshes were designed based on analyzing properties of Gynemesh® PS, which is a common pelvic repairing mesh in clinical use. The requirements of mesh design were as follows: mesh weight <45 g/m2, pore size >75 µm, porosity >60%. Two kinds of meshes were fabricated according to design requirements and named the S1 mesh and S2 mesh. Several structural parameters, including thickness, weight, pore size, porosity and mechanical properties, including bursting strength, tensile strength, suture pulling off force and flexibility, were tested and analyzed. S1 mesh and S2 mesh were then implanted in the onlay position of rabbits for 90 days. The biocompatibility was evaluated through operation situation, postoperative recovery, mesh adhesion, shrinkage, histological evaluation of mesh and surrounding tissues. The results revealed that the two kinds of meshes were both beneficial to promote tissue growth; most animals recovered well. However, S1 mesh had greater shrinkage, while there existed one case of infection in the S2 mesh group because of mesh folding.

Abstract:

Object The object of this study was to compare the effects and complications of manual and computer-aided shaping of titanium meshes for repairing large frontotemporoparietal skull defects following traumatic brain injury. Methods From March 2005 to June 2011, 161 patients with frontotemporoparietal skull defects were observed. Patients were divided into 2 groups according to the repair materials used for cranioplasty: 83 cases used computer-aided shaping for the titanium mesh, whereas the remaining 78 cases used a manually shaped titanium mesh. The advantages and disadvantages of the 2 methods were compared. Results No case of titanium mesh loosening occurred in either group. Subcutaneous fluid collection, titanium mesh tilt, and temporal muscle pain were the most common complications. In the manually shaped group, there were 14 cases of effusion, 10 cases of titanium mesh tilt, and 15 cases of temporal muscle pain. In the computer-aided group, there were 6 cases of effusion, 3 cases of titanium mesh tilt, and 6 cases of temporal muscle pain. The differences were significant between the 2 groups (p < 0.05). Other common complications were scalp infection, exposure of titanium mesh, epidural hematoma, and seizures. In the computer-aided group, the operative time decreased (p < 0.01), the number of screws used was reduced (p < 0.01), and the satisfaction of patients was significantly increased (p < 0.05). Conclusions Computer-aided shaping of titanium mesh for repairing large frontotemporoparietal skull defects decreases postoperative complications and the operative duration, reduces the number of screws used, increases the satisfaction of patients, and restores the appearance of the patient's head, making it an ideal choice for cranioplasty.

Abstract:

Synthetic mesh placement has proved to be a boon for repairing different types of hernias and also vaginal vault prolapsed. However as with all procedures, there are certain risks involved. Mesh migration and erosion in bowel is a rarely reported complication of using synthetic mesh. We report an elderly sixty two year old woman presented with abdominal pain and incisional hernia after being previously operated for abdominal hysterectomy and mesh sarcocolopexy for subsequent vault prolapse ten months ago. Patient planned for open mesh hernioplasty but was intra operatively found to have multiple ileal fistulae secondary to mesh erosion. It is important to consider the possibility of mesh erosion or migration in all patients who present with post synthetic mesh procedures- rare as the incidence may be. Use of specific mesh and suture materials is as important as technique in the primary surgery to prevent such a complication in the first place.

Abstract:

When repairing skin with extensive skin defects, devices are usually used to obtain mesh grafts from skin flaps with different expansion coefficients. They consist of a cutting element, a supporting roller and a plate. As a cutting element they use special interchangeable knives, a roller with a continuous thread or safety razor blades installed in large numbers (from 50 to 250) perpendicularly to the axis of the rotating roller or to the supporting plate. The main disadvantage of these devices is the difficulty of blanking and changing the cutting elements, which is dangerous and requires not only considerable time, but also a certain qualification of medical personnel.

Abstract:

Repairing an incomplete polygon mesh constitutes a primary difficulty in 3D model construction, especially in the computer graphics area. The objective of hole-filling methods is to keep surfaces smoothly and continually filled at hole boundaries while conforming with the shapes. The Advancing Front Mesh (AFM) method was normally used to fill simple holes. However, there has not been much implementation of AFM in handling sharp features. In this paper, we use an AFM method to fill a holes on sharp features. The Enhanced Advancing Front Mesh (EAFM) method was introduced when there was a conflict during triangle creation. The results of the study show that the presented method can effectively improve the AFM method, while preserving the geometric features and details of the original mesh.

Abstract:

Surgical mesh for repairing pelvic defects is expected to be stiff to improve surgical convenience, as well as be soft and flexible to relieve foreign body sensation. This paper aims to develop a new composite mesh (PA) consisted of polypropylene (PP) monofilaments and polylactic acid (PLA) monofilaments according to this expectation. The PA mesh was designed by the two-bar warp knitting technique to have a knitted structure with light weight (19.9 g/m2) and high porosity (porosity). A commercial lightweight PP mesh—Surgimesh® Prolapse mesh—was used as the control group. The mechanical property, in vitro degradation, and in vivo biocompatibility were then measured. The results revealed that the addition of stiffer, stronger PLA monofilaments did not significantly strengthen PA mesh, but made the mesh stiff. The warp knitted structure, porosity and pore size are vital factors affecting mesh mechanical properties. PLA monofilaments in PA mesh were degraded in 74 weeks, with a maximum weight loss reaching 62.4%. PA mesh was demonstrated to have better biocompatibility with evidences of lower shrinkage (13.1%) and faster tissue growth speed.

Abstract:

Abstract This paper presents a review of the most relevant current techniques that deal with hole-filling in 3D models. Contrary to earlier reports, which approach mesh repairing in a sparse and global manner, the objective of this review is twofold. First, a specific and comprehensive review of hole-filling techniques (as a relevant part in the field of mesh repairing) is carried out. We present a brief summary of each technique with attention paid to its algorithmic essence, main contributions and limitations. Second, a solid comparison between 34 methods is established. To do this, we define 19 possible meaningful features and properties that can be found in a generic hole-filling process. Then, we use these features to assess the virtues and deficiencies of the method and to build comparative tables. The purpose of this review is to make a comparative hole-filling state-of-the-art available to researchers, showing pros and cons in a common framework.

Abstract:

The repairing of incomplete measured data caused by the inaccessibility or invisibility of some portions of the product surface for measure tools plays an important role in Reverse Engineering. The fundamental principles of Reverse Engineering and Anatomical CAD are introduced. The main functional advantages of 3-matic package integrated with Anatomical CAD are presented. There is a big difference in the working flows between Anatomical CAD and traditional CAD packages in the process of RE data repairing. In this paper, we propose a new method of data repairing based on Anatomical CAD. The point cloud of the stamping part obtained by a Potable CMM is repaired successfully by 3-matic, which reduces preparation times by working with a triangular mesh directly, and saves the turn-around time and works more effectively.

Abstract:

Applying mesh to reconstruct the pelvic floor is a new surgery method developed in recent years. The composite mesh property is expected to reach perfection by taking advantage of absorbable material and non-absorbable material. This work adopts the dipping method and the electrospinning method to produce polylactic acid/polycaprolactone (weight ratio = 7/3) membrane-coated composite meshes (D-PP1, D-PP2, E-PP1, E-PP2). The effect of coating methods on the mesh structure, such as thickness and weight, is first measured. The electrospinning membrane is tested for only around 3% of the mesh weight, while the dipping membrane is tested for more than 30%. The composite meshes then experience mechanical testing, including tensile strength, bursting strength and flexibility. The coating process is demonstrated to increase elongation at the break in tensile testing: E-PP1 (76.7%) > D-PP1(60%) > PP-1(41.2%); D-PP2 (143.3%) > E-PP2(112.3%) > PP-2(56.7%). It also strengthens the bursting strength: D-PP1 (179.8 N) > E-PP1(157.3 N) > PP-1(149.8 N); D-PP2 (183 N) > E-PP2(174.8 N) > PP-2(154.3 N). However, the dipping method shows weaken composite mesh flexibility, with larger initial modulus for D-PP1 and D-PP2 meshes. Hydrophilicity is represented by the water contact angle and absorption rate. Even though the result of the hydrophobic surface on the composite mesh is reported to easily cause shrinkage, the polypropylene mesh base in this study is considered to prevent this phenomenon. E-PP1 mesh degrades in 20 weeks; D-PP2 mesh degrades in 34 weeks with an induction period of 20 weeks. The optical density value tested, measuring biocompatibility, proves the non-toxicity of both E-PP1 and D-PP2 meshes.

Abstract:

PURPOSE: To compare the use of polypropylene and PTFE meshes in the treatment of incisional hernias made experimentally on Wistar rats. METHODS: The experiment used 24 Wistar rats divided into three cohorts: C-A (ressection of a segment of abdominal wall), E-A (ressection and placement of PTFEe mesh), E-B (resection and placement of polypropylene mesh). After 28 days, the mesh and the surrounding tissue were removed and submitted to macroscopic analysis (assessment of the abdominal wall for presence of abscess in the surgical wound and/or skin necrosis, and adhesions) as well as microscopic analysis (presence of fibrosis, necrosis and abscess, counting of macrophages, mononuclears and polymorphonuclears). RESULTS: Adhesions and abscesses in the surgical wound were observed more commonly associated to the group treated with PTFEe. The size of the fibrous tissue was greater in the group treated with polypropylene. Cohort E-A showed PTFEe mesh enveloped by organized fine connective tissue. No groups presented necrosis on the site of the insertion. The highest mononuclear inflammatory reaction occurred in association to PTFEe when compared to the control group, but the findings for the polypropylene mesh were also significant when compared to the control group. In the analysis of the results obtained for cohorts E-A and E-B, a minimal occurrence of polymorphonuclears was noticed in both groups, which indicates low tissue reactivity to both materials used in the present experiment. CONCLUSION: Even with epithelization and proliferation of connective tissue, anchorage between PTFEe and abdominal wall is insufficient, which can result in reherniations.

Abstract:

This experimental study in rats was designed to investigate the tolerability and the mode of healing when commercial relon mesh is used in the repair of large abdominal-wall defects. A defect was created to simulate anatomical derangement of the abdominal wall and a surgical correction was performed using relon mesh. The mesh was implanted intraperitoneally in 18 Wistar albino rats. The animals were killed under anaesthesia 4, 6, 8, 12, 15 or 30 days later and the intra-abdominal viscera were examined macroscopically for adhesions and other evidence of inflammatory reactions. Skin healing usually occurred within 7 — 8 days of surgery. Microscopic studies were used to confirm the gross findings and showed that maturation of granulation tissue, fibrocyte invasion with encapsulation of the mesh and the appearance of newly formed vessels occurred 2 weeks after surgery. Within 4 weeks a strong layer of connective tissue was present. The relon mesh was tolerated well. These results indicate that the use of relon mesh may provide a cheap alternative means of repairing large abdominal-wall defects.

Abstract:

This paper presents a new CAD model reconstruction method for finite element mesh analysis. It has been accepted by many researchers that modification of a model is often a necessity as a precursor to effective mesh generation. We design an IGES surface model transformation and repairing method based on trimmed B-spline surface patches, and give an algorithm for reconstructing Brep model from surface model without correct topology information. In processing Brep model for numerical simulation, the critical issues involves the rectification of geometrical and topological errors, clearing up sharp edges and cracks, geometry healing will be emphasized. Our model-healing algorithm essentially simplifies the problems of the imperfect models and allows one to deal with simple surface model rather than complex surface representations for finite element mesh.

Abstract:

In this paper our aim is to provide a survey of mesh generation techniques for some Engineering applications. Mesh generation is a very important requirement to solve any problem by very popular numerical method known as Finite element method (FEM). It has several applications in various fields. One such technique is Automated generation of finite element meshes for aircraft conceptual design. It’s an approach for automated generation of fully connected finite element meshes for all internal structural components, given wing body, geometry model, controlled by a few conceptual level structural layout parameters. Another application where it is used is in the study of biomolecules to generate volumetric mesh of a biomolecule of any size and shape based on its atomic structure. These methods are proved to be a faster method due to the usage of computing techniques. Mesh generator is also used for creating finite element surface and volumetric mesh from 3D binary and gray scale medical images. Some of the applications include volumetric images, surface mesh extraction, surface mesh repairing and many more. It is of great importance in understanding the human brain which is a complex subject. Though 3D visualization is a useful tool available, yet it is inadequate due to its challenging computational problem. This paper also includes the survey on latest tools used for these applications which overcomes many problems associated with the conventional approaches.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Background Poly-4-hydroxybutyrate (P4HB) is a naturally occurring polymer derived from transgenic E. coli bacteria with the longest degradation rate when compared to other available products. This polymer has been manufactured as a biosynthetic mesh to be used as reinforcement when repairing a variety of abdominal wall defects. Objective: We aim to describe our center initial experience with this mesh and discuss the possible indications that may benefit from the use of P4HB mesh. Methods: This is a descriptive retrospective study of patients who underwent abdominal wall repair with a P4HB mesh from October 2018 to December 2020 in a single, large volume, academic center. Results: A total of 51 patients (mean age 54.4 years, range 12-89) underwent abdominal wall reconstruction with a P4HB mesh between October 2018 and December 2020. The mean BMI was 30.5 (range 17.2-50.6). Twenty-three (45%) patients had a prior hernia repair at the site. We grouped patients into six different indications for the use of P4HB mesh in our cohort: clean-contaminated, contaminated or infected field (57%), patient refusal for permanent meshes (14%), those with high risk for post-operative infection (12%), visceral protection of second mesh (10%), recurrence with related chronic pain from mesh (6%), and children (2%). Median follow-up was 105 days (range 8-648). Two patients had hernia recurrence (4%) and 8 (16%) patients developed seroma. Conclusion: P4HB mesh is a safe and a viable alternative for complex hernias and high-risk patients with a low complication rate in the short-term.

Abstract:

The objective of this study was designed to evaluate the possibility of repairing tracheal cartilage defect in dogs. 18 local breed dogs of both sexes was used in this study, they are allocated into 2 equal groups. A tracheal defect was induced in the cervical part of the trachea as a window about 3cm x 2cm in diameter. The defect was closed in 1st group by using polypropylene mesh and bone cement substance, while in 2nd group polypropylene mesh with fresh auto- bone marrow. Post-operative study including, clinical observation, gross pathology and histopathological evaluation was performed in all animals. The most important postoperative clinical observation was represented by subcutaneous emphysema at the site of operation in the 2nd group animals, which gradually disappeared within few days. Otherwise no other important complications was reported in both groups during the period of the experiment. The gross pathological changes and biopsy collection for all animals was done at 15, 30, 60 postoperative days. The gross examination revealed complete closing of the induced tracheal defect in all operated animals and a mild adhesion with the surrounding tissues. In both groups, the histopathological features was represented by newly granulation tissue formation and areas of hyaline cartilage degeneration and necrosis. The cartilage regeneration was showed only in 2nd group through by formation of new cartilage cells. In conclusion, it can use both techniques for reconstruction of tracheal defect in dogs but the auto bone marrow group was regarded the best due to improvement of the healing process. .

Abstract:

Abstract Objective To summarize experience in the treatment of pentalogy of Cantrell (POC) in our hospital and explore the effect of artificial materials in repairing sternal defects. Materials and Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on treatment of five children with POC treated by using the Gore-Tex patch and titanium mesh in the Department of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, Children's Hospital of Chongqing Medical University, from January 2010 to January 2019. Results The concurrent conditions included double outlet of right ventricle (n = 2), ventricular septal defect (VSD) and atrial septal defect (ASD) (n = 1), VSD and ASD and patent ductus arteriosus (n = 1), and VSD and left ventricular diverticulum (n = 1) in five cases with POC. Color Doppler echocardiography and computed tomography (CT) + three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of the thorax and abdomen were performed preoperatively. The cardiac malformation was corrected according to color Doppler echocardiography, and a Gore-Tex patch was used to repair the pericardial defect. Titanium mesh was made according to CT 3D reconstruction with a 3D printing mold to repair sternal defects. All patients underwent a one-stage operation, all hearts were eventually repositioned, no deaths occurred after the operation, and follow-up was performed for 6 months to 2 years. The patients recovered well, and the exterior thorax was normal. Conclusion The diagnosis of POC is not difficult. The priority of surgical treatment for POC is to obtain satisfactory corrections of cardiac malformation. The repair of the pericardial defect with the Gore-Tex patch and the sternal defect with the titanium mesh can make the heart return to the mediastinum, reduce the pressure on the heart, reduce the surgical trauma, reduce the difficulty of repairing the sternal defect, and optimally restore the exterior thorax.

Abstract:

Aiming at the triangular mesh holes generated from incomplete data in reverse engineering, a novel algorithm on island filling was proposed. The focal point of this work was automatic recognition and repairing algorithm on island holes. The island holes are recognized based on the projection on characteristic plan. Then, by connecting island holes and outside holes of the island, island holes are converted into the ordinary holes to repair. Experiment result shown that the proposed method is efficient and stable in island hole filling.

Abstract:

Incisional hernia is a common post-surgical complication, but hernias through iliac bone defects after the harvesting of an iliac bone graft is rare. The common presentation includes swelling and discomfort, and sometimes features of intestinal obstruction. A computerized tomography (CT) scan is commonly used for the diagnosis and to define the anatomical defect in the bone. Surgery is recommended because of high risk of strangulation. While various methods of repairing this type of hernia have been described, we chose to perform mesh repair for an iliolumbar incisional hernia.

Abstract:

AbstractSublay mesh repair seems to be the most effective method for treating incisional hernias (IHs). The aim of this study was to report our experience with retromuscular repair and self-gripping mesh for the treatment of midline IHs. In addition, we provided a systematic review of the literature regarding the use of this novel combination. All patients undergoing elective IH repair from June 2016 to November 2018 were included. The self-gripping mesh was placed in the sublay position. Demographic data, defect sizes, postoperative complications and follow-up durations were collected. A systematic review of the available literature was conducted in January 2020 using main databases. A total of 37 patients (20/17M/F) were included in this study, and the mean age and body mass index (BMI) were 58 years and 27 kg/m2, respectively. Minor complications occurred in six patients. Long-term follow-up demonstrated recurrence in three patients. Regarding the review, five publications were considered relevant. The highest complication rate was 28.6%, and the recurrence rate varied from 0 to 5.1%. This is the first review of the literature regarding sublay IH repair using a self-gripping mesh. The low rates of postoperative complications and recurrence in our experience and those reported by most of the reviewed articles demonstrate that this is a safe and effective method for repairing IHs.

Abstract:

Polypropylene mesh is an effective and widely used material in repairing abdominal wall defects, but it causes dense adhesions when in contact with abdominal viscera directly. As a consequence of this process intestinal obstruction and enterocutaneous fistula may develop. The purpose of the present study was to determine whether Seprafilm®, a bioresorbable translucent membrane, reduces abdominal visceral adhesions to polypropylene mesh and whether Seprafilm® has any effects on peritoneal tissue hydroxyproline levels. Twenty-six adult Wistar rats were used. A full-thickness abdominal wall defect was created and cecal abrasions were created to induce adhesion formation in each animal. All of the abdominal defects were repaired with polypropylene mesh. In addition a Seprafilm® membrane was laid over the abdominal viscera in the Seprafilm® group (n = 13). The abdominal cavity was evaluated for adhesion formation, and peritoneal biopsies were taken for the measurement of tissue hydroxyproline levels at the 14th day. The use of Seprafilm® resulted in significant reduction in the adhesion formation ( P = 0.002) and a significant increase in peritoneal hydroxyproline level ( P < 0.0001). These findings demonstrate that the increase of peritoneal hydroxyproline levels caused by Seprafilm® might play a role on the antiadhesive effects of Seprafilm®.

Abstract:

Lumbar hernias occur infrequently and can be congenital, primary (inferior or Petit type, and superior or Grynfeltt type), post-traumatic, or incisional. They are bounded by the 12th rib, the iliac crest, the erector spinae, and the external oblique muscle. Most postoperative incisional hernias occur in nephrectomy or aortic aneurysm repair incisions for which various surgical method in context of meshplasty are available. In this case 60 yr. male hypertensive patient presented to the outpatient clinic of institute with recurrent left side lumbar incisional hernia, patient was previously operated for left side nephrolithiasis 15 years back and onlay meshplasty 2 years back for incisional hernia. The patient was operated under high risk for recurrent incisional hernia repair by triple layered meshplasties in the same sitting. Lumbar incisional hernias are often diffuse with fascial defects that are usually hard to appreciate. Computed tomography scan is the diagnostic modality of choice with adjuvant clinical findings, which allows differentiating them from abdominal wall musculature denervation atrophy complicating flank incisions. Repairing these hernias is difficult due to the surrounding structures for which our surgical approach included a triple mesh repair consisting of underlay, inlay and onlay meshplasty thereby anticipating further such incidences of incisional hernia.

Abstract:

Repairing an incisional ventral hernia is a major challenge for a surgeon. The high recurrence rates observed during hernia repair by tissue approximation led to development of tension-free procedures by using prosthetic materials. The purpose of this study is to report the results of a tension-free repair technique using expanded polytetrafluoroethylene Gore-Tex Dual Mesh (Gore-Tex Soft Tissue Patch, W.L. Gore and Associates Inc, Flagstaff, AZ) in patients with primary or recurrent incisional ventral hernias. Over 3 years, 52 patients with incisional hernias have undergone this procedure in our clinic. Fourteen of them had recurrent hernias which had been primarily repaired by Mayo hernioplasty. Six of our patients had irreducible hernias preoperatively. Twenty-five patients had hernias on midline incisions, and the rest of them had hernias on transverse abdominal incisions. The median patient age was 65 years, and all were operated on under general anesthesia. The majority of the patients had 4 to 6 days of hospitalization. A subcutaneous seroma developed in eight patients. They all were treated by multiple paracentesis. Four of our patients experienced wound infection and were treated by mesh removal. None of the patients presented with cardiovascular or pulmonary complications. During the follow-up period, no other hernia recurrence, except the cases with mesh removal, has been noticed. The tension-free incisional hernia repair using expanded polytetrafluoroethylene mesh is, to our experience, a safe and easy procedure with no major morbidity or recurrence.

Abstract:

Lumbar hernia is uncommon and occurs in Grynfeltt's triangle on the left side, more frequently in men than in women. Acquired lumbar hernias are the result of iliac crest bone harvest or blunt trauma and seat belt injuries in road accidents. Many surgical options have been reported for repairing this hernia through primary closure of the defect or through use of aponeurotic or prosthetic materials. The Dowd technique is the technique most often used. The authors describe a patient with posttraumatic inferior triangle lumbar hernia who underwent laparoscopy and, 10 days later, laparotomy. Both procedures failed. Finally, a novel lumbotomic surgical approach was used, involving the Dowd technique and prosthetic mesh. The patient was free of recurrence 3 months after the procedure.
