[Repair of large defects of the abdominal wall with lyophilized dura mater. Experimental research (author's transl)].
In order to evaluate whether and how far lyophilised human dura mater deserves to be preferred in repair surgery of large defects of the abdominal wall, the Authors present and discuss the results they obtained during the course of experimental research. In the light of personal histological documents, they stress the absence of reject phenomena and the peculiar capacity of the prosthesis for substitution by cicatricial tissue, properties which, together with the complete re-epithelialisation of the peritoneal mesothelium and the resistance to mechanical stresses, evidence that lyophilised dura mater must rightly be given preference in plastic reconstruction of large defects of the abdominal wall.
