Marlex - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
The most commonly used is polypropylene or Marlex mesh (Davol, Inc., Cranston, RI) [8]. It provides tension-free tensile strength and porous scaffolding, allowing the ingrowth of scar and incorporation into the abdominal wall. Mesh reconstruction is highly efficacious in reducing the risk of re-herniation, with recurrence rates less than 10% [8 ...
