Interesting obvious reason to continue to train surgeons in pure tissue methods
Here is an interesting paper that illustrates how the intense focus on coverting all hernia repairs to mesh implantations has left a critical hernia problem unsupported.

Purpose The purpose of this study was to investigate the link between bacterial biofilms and negative outcomes of hernia repair surgery. As biofilms are known to play a role in mesh-related infections, we investigated the presence of biofilms on hernia … Continue reading
