With the development of the economy and technological progress,more and more animal-derived mesh products are being utilized in the medical field for tissue and organ repair and replacement.Owing to the complexity of their structure and production process,these animal-derived meshes still face several challenges in practical applications,such as insufficient mechanical strength,rapid degradation rates,and the detection of harmful leachable substances.Among these challenges,the production process is a key factor affecting product quality.This paper reviews the key aspects of the production process and quality control for animal-derived meshes in China,offering new insights for the quality control and regulatory oversight of such products.
