Could amniotic membrane make mesh surgery safer for women?
NCT ID NCT07414849
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether adding a human amniotic membrane graft to standard mesh surgery can lower the risk of mesh exposure, a common complication. About 330 women with pelvic organ prolapse or stress urinary incontinence will take part. The goal is to see if the membrane helps tissue heal better and reduces the need for follow-up procedures.
