What do current studies conclude about long -term foreign-body reaction to polypropylene mesh in prolapse repair?
Mesh: prolapse. Uterine prolapse is treated surgically and can protect against incontinence if combined with bladder neck support. If mesh is used, there are potential complications with the mesh which can sometimes erode the tissue supporting it. Consult a second opinion gyn provider who may be able to recommend what is called a retroperitoneal suspension of the uterus, and a Marshall-Marchetti for bladder. .
