Primary repair of the abdominal wall and the cure of incisional hernias using the relon mono-filamentous fibres (N.I. 2402/76) Confronted with long lasting parietal suppurations which are entertained by the classic nylon poly-filamentous fibres, suppurations that cannot be avoided unless the above fibres are removed on one hand assuming the risk of a possible subsequent incisional hernias and on the other hand because of the relative elevated price of the mono-filamentous fibres brought from abroad, within the last years (from 1982) we have utilised the relon mono-filamentous fibre (N.I. 2402/76) in abdominal wall reconstruction (initially for the surgical cure of the incisional hernias and there after in primary abdominal wall reconstruction when there were factors predisposing to a possible subsequent parietal for septic contamination, in overweight patients, immune-compromised patients, in patients following steroid therapy, chemotherapy, etc. Our present experience extends over more than 1000 patients who have undertook a surgical procedure.
