Mesh Migration Causing Strangulated Intestinal Obstruction After Umbilical Hernia Repair
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Mesh migration following hernia repair is an uncommon complication, leading to erosion, infection, fistula or obstruction. Migration can occur because of primary factors like inadequate fixation or can be secondary due to erosion. Very few cases have been reported of mesh migration causing intestinal obstruction after umbilical hernia repair and ours is perhaps only the second such case resulting in strangulated bowel obstruction .Use of prosthetic materials like prolene is more liable to develop in such complications and a composit or a biocompatible mesh is less liable to develop such complications.
