[Treatment of hernias and eventrations with alloplastic material (Mersilene type mesh)].
Between 1973 and 1979 the authors have performed 126 interventions, as follows: 27 hernias (18 of the inguinal type and 9 umbilical ones), and 99 eventration. They used alloplastic materials for consolidation or substitution of the musculo-aponevrotic wall of mediocre quality. In practice the "Mersilene" alloplastic material was used, made of dacron fibers, which provides a series of advantages: good tolerance, efficient sterilisation without undergoing degradation, possibility for use in reparation of large wall defects, high resistance. The net was applied for consolidation purposes in most of the cases (111 in all), and was placed either above the aponevrosis, or pre- or intra-peritoneally. In 15 patients it was used for substitution, when eventration resulted in a large muscular-aponevrotic defect. The results were very good, and a single recidive was noted, as well as two partial rejections, that did not however result in recidives.
