Prosthetic polyester-based hybrid mesh for repairing umbilical hernia in buffalo calves (Bubalus bubalis)

Mohamed Shokry, Abdelhaleem Elkasapy.


Abstract
Aim: The aim of the studt is to evaluate the newly developed multifunctional prosthetic polyester-based hybrid mesh in hernioplasty for repairing clinical cases of umbilical hernias in buffalo calves.
Method: Seven buffalo calves of 4-8 months age with umbilical hernias since birth were included in study. The used mesh is a hybrid platform of both synthetic and natural materials. The operated animals were maintained under control for 7 days, and skin sutures were removed after 10 days.
Results: All buffalo calves had an ordinary uneventful recovery without wound dehiscence, recurrence or infection for 3 months follow-ups.
Conclusion: The used mesh showed an efficient healing with excellent bio-compatibility and could be a feasible and versatile alternative prosthesis with many advantages such as very low cost, mechanical stability, pliability, sterilizability and inertness.

Key words: buffalo calves, umbilicus, hernia, prosthetic mesh, repair
