Evaluation methods for mechanical biocompatibility of hernia repair meshes: respective characteristics, application scope and future perspectives

Soft tissue substitutes are subjected to large deformation in vivo, so the matching of deformation behavior between substitute and tissue is a complex but important criterion for soft tissue repair. Hernia repair mesh is a typical soft tissue substitute, and the mismatch of mechanical properties bet...
