MycroMesh is not a suitable soft tissue prosthesis for repair of the defective vaginal wall.
Thirty-one women had recurrent vaginal wall prolapse repaired with insertion of a soft tissue prosthesis-MycroMesh in 22 (group B) and other materials in 9 (group A). Rejection rates were 18% and zero percent, respectively. Given these data, MycroMesh is not recommended to repair a defective vaginal wall.
