Photographs showing some of the macroscopic findings described during tissue trimming. (a) PP-1-Hist-6 month group. Note the good position of the mesh despite the slight folding in one of the corners, which was the unique macroscopic finding observed in this group. (b) PP-1-Hist posterior 3 wk group. Note the complete folding of the mesh with exposure of the mesh into the vaginal cavity (dashed arrow) and into the colonic cavity (continuous arrow). (c) PP-2-PP posterior. Abscess associated to one of the polypropylene stitches. (d) PP-1-PP anterior 3 wk. Extrusion of the mesh into the vagina.
