Emerging materials and technologies for advancing bioresorbable surgical meshes. Acta Biomater 2024; 184:1-21. [PMID: 38879102 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2024.06.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/05/2024] [Revised: 05/22/2024] [Accepted: 06/10/2024] [Indexed: 06/29/2024]
Abstract
Surgical meshes play a significant role in the treatment of various medical conditions, such as hernias, pelvic floor issues, guided bone regeneration, and wound healing. To date, commercial surgical meshes are typically made of non-absorbable synthetic polymers, notably polypropylene and polytetrafluoroethylene, which are associated with postoperative complications, such as infections. Biological meshes, based on native tissues, have been employed to overcome such complications, though mechanical strength has been a main disadvantage. The right balance in mechanical and biological performances has been achieved by the advent of bioresorbable meshes. Despite improvements, recurrence of clinical complications associated with surgical meshes raises significant concerns regarding the technical adequacy of current materials and designs, pointing to a crucial need for further development. To this end, current research focuses on the design of meshes capable of biomimicking native tissue and facilitating the healing process without post-operative complications. Researchers are actively investigating advanced bioresorbable materials, both synthetic polymers and natural biopolymers, while also exploring the performance of therapeutic agents, surface modification methods and advanced manufacturing technologies such as 4D printing. This review seeks to evaluate emerging biomaterials and technologies for enhancing the performance and clinical applicability of the next-generation surgical meshes. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: In the ever-transforming landscape of regenerative medicine, the embracing of engineered bioabsorbable surgical meshes stands as a key milestone in addressing persistent challenges and complications associated with existing treatments. The urgency to move beyond conventional non-absorbable meshes, fraught with post-surgery complications, emphasises the necessity of using advanced biomaterials for engineered tissue regeneration. This review critically examines the growing field of absorbable surgical meshes, considering their potential to transform clinical practice. By strategically combining mechanical strength with bioresorbable characteristics, these innovative meshes hold the promise of mitigating complications and improving patient outcomes across diverse medical applications. As we navigate the complexities of modern medicine, this exploration of engineered absorbable meshes emerges as a promising approach, offering an overall perspective on biomaterials, technologies, and strategies adopted to redefine the future of surgical meshes.

Abstract
PP mesh is a widely used prosthetic material in hernia repair. However, visceral adhesion is one of the worst complications of this operation. Hence, an anti-adhesive PP mesh is developed by coating porous polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) hydrogel on PP surface via freezing-thawing process method. The compressive modulus of porous PVA hydrogel coating is first regulated by the addition of porogen sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) at various quality ratios with PVA. As expected, the porous hydrogel coating displayed modulus more closely resembling that of native abdominal wall tissue. In vitro tests demonstrate the modified PP mesh show superior coating stability, excellent hemocompatibility, and good cytocompatibility. In vivo experiments illustrate that PP mesh coated by the PVA4 hydrogel that mimicked the modulus of native abdominal wall could prevent adhesion effectively. Based on this, the rapamycin (RPM) is loaded into the porous PVA4 hydrogel coating to further improve anti-adhesive property of PP mesh. The Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and Masson trichrome (MT) staining results verified that the resulting mesh could alleviate the inflammation response and reduce the deposition of collagen around the implantation zone. The biomimetic mechanical property and anti-adhesive property of modified PP mesh make it a valuable candidate for application in hernioplasty.

Abstract
Infection-associated complications and repair failures and antibiotic resistance have emerged as a formidable challenge in hernia repair surgery. Consequently, the development of antibiotic-free antibacterial patches for hernia repair has become an exigent clinical necessity. Herein, a GBC/Gel/LL37 biological patch (biopatch) with exceptional antibacterial properties is fabricated by grafting 2-Methacryloyloxyethyl trimethylammonium chloride (METAC), a unique quaternary ammonium salt with vinyl, onto bacterial cellulose (GBC), followed by compounding with gelatin (Gel) and LL37. The GBC/Gel/LL37 biopatch exhibits stable swelling capacity, remarkable mechanical properties, flexibility, and favorable biocompatibility. The synergistic effect of METAC and LL37 confers upon the GBC/Gel/LL37 biopatch excellent antibacterial efficacy against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, effectively eliminating invading bacteria without the aid of exogenous antibiotics in vivo while significantly reducing local acute inflammation caused by infection. Furthermore, the practical efficacy of the GBC/Gel/LL37 biopatch is evaluated in an infected ventral hernia model, revealing that the GBC/Gel/LL37 biopatch can prevent the formation of visceral adhesions, facilitate the repair of infected ventral hernia, and effectively mitigate chronic inflammation. The prepared antibacterial GBC/Gel/LL37 biopatch is very effective in dealing with the risk of infection in hernia repair surgery and offers potential clinical opportunities for other soft injuries, exhibiting considerable clinical application prospects.

Abstract
Tension-free abdominal wall hernia patch materials (AWHPMs) play an important role in the repair of abdominal wall defects (AWDs), which have a recurrence rate of <1%. Nevertheless, there are still significant challenges in the development of tailored, biomimetic, and extracellular matrix (ECM)-like AWHPMs that satisfy the clinical demands of abdominal wall repair (AWR) while effectively handling post-operative complications associated with abdominal hernias, such as intra-abdominal visceral adhesion and abnormal healing. This extensive review presents a comprehensive guide to the high-end fabrication and the precise selection of these advanced AWHPMs. The review begins by briefly introducing the structures, sources, and properties of AWHPMs, and critically evaluates the advantages and disadvantages of different types of AWHPMs for AWR applications. The review subsequently summarizes and elaborates upon state-of-the-art AWHPM fabrication methods and their key characteristics (e.g., mechanical, physicochemical, and biological properties in vitro/vivo). This review uses compelling examples to demonstrate that advanced AWHPMs with multiple functionalities (e.g., anti-deformation, anti-inflammation, anti-adhesion, pro-healing properties, etc.) can meet the fundamental clinical demands required to successfully repair AWDs. In particular, there have been several developments in the enhancement of biomimetic AWHPMs with multiple properties, and additional breakthroughs are expected in the near future.

Abstract
Tissue adhesion is one of the most common postoperative complications, which is frequently accompanied by inflammation, pain, and even dyskinesia, significantly reducing the quality of life of patients. Thus, to prevent the formation of tissue adhesions, various strategies have been explored. Among these methods, placing anti-adhesion membranes over the injured site to separate the wound from surrounding tissues is a simple and prominently favored method. Recently, electrospun nanofibers have been the most frequently investigated antiadhesive membranes due to their tunable porous structure and high porosities. They not only can act as an essential barrier and functional carrier system but also allow for high permeability and nutrient transport, showing great potential for preventing tissue adhesion. Herein, we provide a short review of the most recent applications of electrospun nanofibrous antiadhesive membranes in tendons, the abdominal cavity, dural sac, pericardium, and meninges. Firstly, each section highlights the most representative examples and they are sorted based on the latest progress of related research. Moreover, the design principles, preparation strategies, overall performances, and existing problems are highlighted and evaluated. Finally, the current challenges and several future ways to develop electrospun nanofibrous antiadhesive membranes are proposed. The systematic discussion and proposed directions can shed light on ideas and guide the reasonable design of electrospun nanofibrous membranes, contributing to the development of exceptional tissue anti-adhesive materials in the foreseeable future.

Abstract
Hernia reconstruction is one of the most frequently practiced surgical procedures worldwide. Plastic surgery plays a pivotal role in reestablishing desired abdominal wall structure and function without the drawbacks traditionally associated with general surgery as excessive tension, postoperative pain, poor repair outcomes, and frequent recurrence. Surgical meshes have been the preferential choice for abdominal wall hernia repair to achieve the physical integrity and equivalent components of musculofascial layers. Despite the relevant progress in recent years, there are still unsolved challenges in surgical mesh design and complication settlement. This review provides a systemic summary of the hernia surgical mesh development deeply related to abdominal wall hernia pathology and classification. Commercial meshes, the first-generation prosthetic materials, and the most commonly used repair materials in the clinic are described in detail, addressing constrain side effects and rational strategies to establish characteristics of ideal hernia repair meshes. The engineered prosthetics are defined as a transit to the biomimetic smart hernia repair scaffolds with specific advantages and disadvantages, including hydrogel scaffolds, electrospinning membranes, and three-dimensional patches. Lastly, this review critically outlines the future research direction for successful hernia repair solutions by combing state-of-the-art techniques and materials.

Abstract
This study developed, a novel polypropylene (PP) mesh combined with poly (L-lactic acid) (PLA) electrospun nanofibers loaded sirolimus (SRL). The PP mesh was combined with PLA/SRL (1/0, 1/0.01, 1/0.02; mass ratios) composed electrospun membrane characterized by FTIR spectroscopy, XPS and SEM, and evaluated for cytocompatibility in vitro. In an in vivo study, a total of 84 Sprague-Dawley rats were employed to evaluate the efficacy of the novel composite PP mesh anti-adhesion, mechanical properties and inflammation. As a results, the PLA/SRL membrane could compound with PP mesh stably and load SRL. Although tensile testing showed that the mechanical properties of composite mesh decreased in vivo, the integration strength between the tissue and mesh was still able to counteract intra-abdominal pressure. Compared with the native PP mesh group, the novel PP mesh group showed a lower score for abdominal adhesion and inflammation. More importantly, the novel PP mesh completely integrated with the abdominal wall and had sufficient mechanical strength to repair abdominal wall defects.

Abstract
Hernia repair mesh is associated with a number of complications, including adhesions and limited mobility, due to insufficient mechanical strength and non-resorbability. Among them, visceral adhesions are one of the most serious complications of patch repair. In this study, a degradable patch with an anti-adhesive layer was prepared for hernia repair by 3D printing and electrospinning techniques using polycaprolactone (PCL), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), and soybean peptide (SP). The study into the physicochemical properties of the patch was found that it had adequate mechanical strength requirements (16 N cm-1 ) and large elongation at break, which were superior than commercial polypropylene (PP) patches. In vivo and in vitro experiments showed that human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) proliferated well on composite patches, and showed excellent biocompatibility with the host and little adhesion through a rat abdominal wall defect model. In conclusion, the results of this study show that composite patch can effectively reduce the occurrence of adhesions, while the addition of SP in the patch further enhances its biocompatibility. We believe that a regenerative biological patch with great potential in hernia repair provides a new strategy for the development of new biomimetic biodegradable patches.

Abstract
Throughout the past few years, hernia incidence has remained at a high level worldwide, with more than 20 million people requiring hernia surgery each year. Synthetic hernia meshes play an important role, providing a microenvironment that attracts and harbors host cells and acting as a permanent roadmap for intact abdominal wall reconstruction. Nevertheless, it is still inevitable to cause not-so-trivial complications, especially chronic pain and adhesion. In long-term studies, it was found that the complications are mainly caused by excessive fibrosis from the foreign body reaction (FBR) and infection resulting from bacterial colonization. For a thorough understanding of their complex mechanism and providing a richer background for mesh development, herein, we discuss different clinical mesh products and explore the interactions between their structure and complications. We further explored progress in reducing mesh complications to provide varied strategies that are informative and instructive for mesh modification in different research directions. We hope that this work will spur hernia mesh designers to step up their efforts to develop more practical and accessible meshes by improving the physical structure and chemical properties of meshes to combat the increasing risk of adhesions, infections, and inflammatory reactions. We conclude that further work is needed to solve this pressing problem, especially in the analysis and functionalization of mesh materials, provided of course that the initial performance of the mesh is guaranteed.

Abstract
Mesh infection after abdominal wall reconstruction is a rare and usually devastating complication. Herein, we describe a unique case of a delayed and non-lethal Candida albicans mesh infection after abdominal wall reconstruction with placement of a biologic graft impregnated with antibiotics. Mesh explantation was not required, and the wound healed by secondary intention. This work suggests that locally delivered antibiotics may change the culprit microbes of skin infections to more unusual species such as Candida spp. Future research is required to study the effect of including antifungal agents in the locally delivered antimicrobials for abdominal wall reconstructions with biological meshes.

Abstract
The repair of abdominal wall defects is currently a clinical challenge. A naturally derived extracellular matrix (ECM) such as small intestine submucosa (SIS) has received great attention in abdominal wall defect repair because of its remarkable bioactivity, biodegradability and tissue regeneration. The match between material degradation and tissue remodeling is very important for the realization of ideal repair effectiveness. In this study, a near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent dye Cy5.5 NHS ester was used to label ECM-based (ECMB) composites consisting of SIS and chitosan/elastin electrospun nanofibers for monitoring material degradation. The tissue remodeling in the ECMB composites for a full-thickness abdominal wall defect repair was systematically investigated by a series of tests including wall thickness measurement, muscle regeneration analysis and angiogenesis assessment. The main findings were: (1) real-time and noninvasive degradation monitoring of the ECMB composites until complete degradation could be realized by chemical conjugation with a Cy5.5 NHS ester. (2) In a full-thickness abdominal wall defect model, the explant thickness could be used as an intuitional indicator for evaluating the tissue remodeling efficiency in the ECMB composites, and the accuracy of this indicator was verified by various examinations including collagen deposition, angiogenesis, and muscle regeneration. The present study could provide new insight into evaluating tissue repair effectiveness of the ECMB composites.

Abstract
Polypropylene (PP) mesh is most commonly used for the treatment of hernia and pelvic floor construction. However, some of the patients have a few complications after surgery due to the rejection or infection of the implanted meshes. The poor biocompatibility of PP mesh, low wettability results in poor cell attachment/proliferation and restricts the loading of antibacterial agent, leading to a slow healing process and high risk of infection after surgery. Here in this study, a new technique has been employed to develop a novel antimicrobial and biocompatible PP mesh modified with bioactive chitosan and functionalized nanodiamond (FND) for infection inhibition and acceleration of the healing process. An oxygen plasma treatment PP mesh was used then chitosan was strongly attached to the surface of the PP fibers. Subsequently, FND as an antibacterial agent was loaded into the chitosan modified PP fiber to provide desired antibacterial functions. The meshes were characterised with XRD, FTIR, SEM, EDX, water contact angle, confocal, and optical microscopy. The modified PP mesh with chitosan and FND showed a significant increase in its hydrophilicity and L929 fibroblast cell attachment. Furthermore, the modified mesh exhibited great antibacterial efficiency against Escherichia coli. Therefore, the newly developed technique to modify PP mesh could be a promising technique to generate a biocompatible PP mesh to accelerate the healing process and reduce the risk of infection after surgery.

Abstract
Meshes have been the overwhelmingly popular choice for the repair of abdominal wall defects to retrieve the bodily integrity of musculofascial layer. Broadly, they are classified into synthetic, biological and composite mesh based on their mechanical and biocompatible features. With the development of anatomical repair techniques and the increasing requirements of constructive remodeling, however, none of these options satisfactorily manages the conditional repair. In both preclinical and clinical studies, materials/agents equipped with distinct functions have been characterized and applied to improve mesh-aided repair, with the importance of mesh functionalization being highlighted. However, limited information exists on systemic comparisons of the underlying mechanisms with respect to functionalized strategies, which are fundamental throughout repair and regeneration. Herein, we address this topic and summarize the current literature by subdividing common functions of the mesh into biomechanics-matched, macrophage-mediated, integration-enhanced, anti-infective and antiadhesive characteristics for a comprehensive overview. In particular, we elaborate their effects separately with respect to host response and integration and discuss their respective advances, challenges and future directions toward a clinical alternative. From the vastly different approaches, we provide insight into the mechanisms involved and offer suggestions for personalized modifications of these emerging meshes.

Abstract
Polypropylene (PP) meshes are the most widely used as hernioplasty prostheses. As far as hernia repair is concerned, bacterial contamination and tissue adhesion would be the clinical issues. Moreover, an optimal mesh should assist the healing process of hernia defect and avoid undesired prosthesis displacements. In this present study, the commercial hernia mesh was modified to solve the mentioned problems. Accordingly, a new bi-functional PP mesh with anti-adhesion and antibacterial properties on the front and adhesion properties (reduce undesired displacements) on the backside was prepared. The backside of PP mesh was coated with polycaprolactone (PCL) nanofibers modified by mussel-inspired L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA) bioadhesive. The front side was composed of two different nanofibrous mats, including hybrid and two-layered mats with different antibacterial properties, drug release, and biodegradation behavior, which were based on PCL nanofibers and biomacromolecule carboxyethyl-chitosan (CECS)/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) nanofibers containing different ofloxacin amounts. The anti-adhesion, antibacterial, and biocompatibility studies were done through in-vitro experiments. The results revealed that DOPA coated PCL/PP/hybrid meshes containing ofloxacin below 20 wt% possessed proper cell viability, AdMSCs adhesion prevention, and excellent antibacterial efficiency. Moreover, DOPA modifications not only enhanced the surface properties of the PP mesh but also improved cell adhesion, spreading, and proliferation.

Abstract
Herein, a versatile bilayer system, composed by a polypropylene (PP) mesh and a covalently bonded poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) hydrogel, is reported. The cell adhesion mechanism was successfully modulated by controlling the architecture of the hydrogel in terms of duration of PNIPAAm grafting time, crosslinker content, and temperature of material exposure in PBS solutions (below and above the LCST of PNIPAAm). The best in vitro results with fibroblast (COS-1) and epithelial (MCF-7) cells was obtained with a mesh modified with a porous iPP-g-PNIPAAm bilayer system, prepared via PNIPAAm grafting for 2 h at the lowest N,N'-methylene bis(acrylamide) (MBA) concentration (1 mM). Under these conditions, the detachment of the fibroblast-like cells was 50% lower than that of the control, after 7 days of cell incubation, which represents a high de-adhesion of cells in a short period. Moreover, the whole system showed excellent stability in dry or wet media, proving that the thermosensitive hydrogel was well adhered to the polymer surface, after PP fibre activation by cold plasma. This study provides new insights on the development of anti-adherent meshes for abdominal hernia repair.
