FIGURE 2

A, Gross appearance of sham and graft-vagina complex after implantation via sacrocolpopexy at 12 weeks. Graft bridge describes portion of graft-tissue extending from vagina to sacrum. All images were shown with same scale with magnified portion below showing appearance of grafts following implantation. *Area where tissue ingrowth was poor. Arrows point to area showing mesh buckling and shrinkage with collapsed pores in Gynemesh and flat surface with open pores in composite.
