Abstract:
The aim of study was to prove the applicability of polypropylene mesh for hernioplasty in cases of infection, phlegmon of hernia sac in the experiment. The experiment was conducted on 150 white male rats "Wistar" weighing 250-300. We concluded, that reaction of tissue to implant mesh matches with reaction of tissue bordering to necrotic cells, and the presence of an infected hernia does not worsen the conditions of integration polypropylene implant with tissues. We showed, that strengthening mesh in tissues observed at 21 day, and the most pronounced effects of fixation - on 90 days after alloplastic hernioplasty of the hernia defect. The results of experimental studies confirm the possibility of using plastic mesh implants for hernia defect in phase of inflammation that often occurs in strangulated hernia.
