BACKGROUND: Polyvinylidene fluoride-coated polypropylene meshes have been developed specifically for intraperitoneal onlay mesh repair. They combine a macroporous design with biomechanical characteristics compatible with the abdominal wall and are reported to have favourable antiadhesive properties. This retrospective study reports complications related to one of these materials, DynaMesh. METHODS: Twenty-nine patients underwent intraperitoneal onlay mesh repair with DynaMesh at one of two hospitals. Patients characteristics, surgical procedures and postoperative analgesia were comparable at both sites. RESULTS: Six patients developed DynaMesh-related complications that required surgical reintervention by laparotomy within 1 year of operation. Surgical reintervention was for adhesions in five patients and the mesh had to be explanted in three. One mesh was explanted because of early infection. Adhesions to DynaMesh were found in two patients who had surgery for unrelated reasons. CONCLUSION: Laparoscopic intraperitoneal onlay DynaMesh repair was associated with a high rate of complications. Copyright (c) 2010 British Journal of Surgery Society Ltd.
