Abstract:

BACKGROUND:In recent years, more and more patches can be used for the pelvic floor repair and reconstruction, but there is no uniform standard for the selection and clinical application of patches. The safety and feasibility of different patches need to have a clearer understanding.
OBJECTIVE: To compare the feasibility of different biological patch materials used in pelvic floor reconstruction, and to master the complications during the pelvic floor repair and reconstruction in order to make clear the safety of patches.
METHODS: A computer-based search of CNKI and PubMed was performed for articles about type, material characteristics and application of batches published in the past 10 years. The key words were “biological patch, reconstructive pelvic surgery” in Chinese and English, respectively. Articles published in authority journals or recently published were preferred. According to the inclusion criteria, 36 articles were included in result analysis.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Pelvic floor repair and reconstruction materials can replace damaged pelvic fascia, acting as the substitutes of the pelvic floor. Biomaterial patches are divided into autologous, allogeneic, and xenogenoust materials. At the present stage, acellular tissue matrix is the main source of allogeneic, and xenogenoust materials, which does not contain specific recognition sites, is not easy to cause receptor immune rejection, promotes tissue compatibility greatly, and reduce the infectious rate effectively. Meanwhile, there may be a composite growth factor that is able to regulate cell growth and differentiation. Synthetic patches have been widely used in clinic, but they may lead to complications, such as infection and erosion. Biomaterial patches can avoid these complications to a certain extent, and their safety, however, need further studies.
