摘要
The aim of this study is to examine the role of bacterial infection in complications following surgical management of urinary incontinence and genital prolapse using meshes. There were sixteen prostheses removed. Eight were monofilament polypropylene-knitted meshes, one was a silicone-coated polypropylene mesh, another was a collagen-coated polypropylene mesh, four were silicone-coated polyester meshes and two were polyester meshes. The most frequent cause for removal was symptomatic vaginal erosion (62%). Cultures were performed under aerobic, anaerobic and enrichment conditions. Infection was multimicrobial for 31% of meshes. When only one bacteria was found, it was Proteus mirabilis in 25% of cases. Forty-three per cent of bacterial quantifications were under 103 colony-forming units per millilitre. Bacterial contamination was found in all meshes, quantification was often low, and therefore, its exact role is not yet clear.
