Study Summary
The purpose of this study is to investigate what happens to biologic mesh in the body over time on a molecular level. To date, it is not known what agents, enzymes, or proteins are interacting at the implantation site that contributes to mesh remodeling and/or degradation. Investigators on this project will identify patients with previously placed mesh who are needing reoperation on the same site and take a biopsy of the mesh during the normal course of surgery. Basic data surrounding the surgical procedure will be collected. The mesh samples will be analyzed for enzymes and proteins and examined histologically for processes that signify remodeling and/or degradation. Control patients will undergo biopsy of abdominal fascia at laparoscopic trocar sites in a manner that will not affect the outcome(s) of their procedure or other risk to the incision site.
