Conclusions: prosthetic patch infection after CEA is rare.
Including this series, a literature review identified 43 prosthetic patch infections, 91% culturing Staphylococci or Streptococci.
Results: 8/936 CEA patients (0.85%) developed a prosthetic patch infection.
For example, multiple studies have shown that patients who undergo congenital diaphragmatic hernia repair with a prosthetic patch have an increased incidence of chest wall deformities [13 15].

Infected carotid prosthetic patches (ICPP) are a rare but catastrophic complication of carotid endarterectomy (CEA).
Numerous techniques exist for repairing large congenital diaphragmatic hernias (CDHs) including prosthetic patches, tissue-engineered grafts, and various muscle flaps.
BP patches have several advantages compared with prosthetic patches, including superior biocompatability, easy handling, less suture line bleeding, and possibly reduced rates of infection.
Prosthetic patches can be used to repair large congenital diaphragmatic hernia defects but may be associated with infection, recurrence, and thoracic deformity.
Future bioengineered patches are likely to optimize patch performance, both by achieving minimal stroke risk and long-term rates of restenosis as well as by minimizing the risk of unusual complications of prosthetic patches such as infection and pseudoaneurysm formation.
Photographs have emerged of Oscar-winner Matthew McConaughey sporting a prosthetic bald patch, ill-fitting suit and impressive paunch on the set of his new film, Gold.
