The use of Dacron in the repair of hernias of the groin

The use of Dacron in the repair of hernias of the groin

R E Stoppa et al. Surg Clin North Am. 1984 Apr.

Abstract

Two French surgical teams particularly interested in hernia problems detail the use of Dacron (Mersilene) mesh in the treatment of groin hernias for the reinforcement or the replacement of the fascia transversalis , as by an artificial endoabdominal fascia. The article reports the experiences and techniques of the two teams, which have used Dacron for 20 years, either by the inguinal or the preperitoneal abdominal approach. The good results reported allow the statement that, without ruling out classic techniques for simpler cases, surgical repair using prostheses offers an excellent opportunity for use and for preventing the recurrence of hernias.
