[The use of Mersilene mesh in the treatment of giant laparoceles].
The paper reports on experience with the use of Mersilene mesh in 6 patients with giant laparoceles. Besides being physiologically compatible, Mersilene mesh is recommended when traditional techniques fail. The Rives technique was used, placing the prostheses between the posterior sheath and the rectus muscle; in one case it was inserted under the peritoneum. A good local and general preparation for the operation is recommended. Even though the introduction of prosthetic materials into the body is not always non-injurious, the use of Mersilene mesh is advised because of its easy positioning and the low incidence of complications.
