In vitro biomechanical properties of porcine perineal tissues to better understand human perineal tears during delivery

Abstract Introduction Data concerning the mechanical properties of the perineum during delivery are very limited. In vivo experiments raise ethical issues. The aim of the study was to describe some of the biomechanical properties of each perineal tissue layer collected from sows in order to better u...
