The Use Of Marlex Mesh For Incisional Hernia Repair

Abstract

Forty cases of incisional hernia underwent operation on which Marlex mesh was used routinely to strengthen the repaired defect. No patient had any major complication in the post-operative period. No patient has so far shown recurrence. Thus Marlex mesh appears to be a satisfactory synthetic prothesis in the repair of incisional hernias. © 2024 Georg Thieme Verlag. All rights reserved.
