Uncomplicated erosion of polytetrafluoroethylene grafts into the rectum.

Kimberly S Kenton1, Michael P Woods, Linda Brubaker.   

Abstract

Synthetic materials are frequently used in gynecologic surgical procedures to repair pelvic floor hernias and prolapse and to form barriers to adhesion formation. Mesh erosion into the vagina and lower urinary tract are known complications. We report 2 cases of polytetrafluoroethylene mesh erosion into the rectum.
