Medical- and Non-Medical-Grade Polycaprolactone Mesh Printing for Prolapse Repair: Establishment of Melt Electrowriting Prototype Parameters

Medical- and Non-Medical-Grade Polycaprolactone Mesh Printing for Prolapse Repair: Establishment of Melt Electrowriting Prototype Parameters

Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) occurs due to inadequate support of female pelvic organs and is often treated with synthetic implants. However, complications like infections, mesh shrinkage, and tissue erosion can arise due to biomechanical incompatibilities with native tissue. This study aimed to optim...
