Abstract:The objective of this study is to clarify whether the omental coating can effectively attenuate foreign body reaction (FBR) induced by implanted materials. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were injected with polydextran particle slurry intraperitoneally to activate the omentum. 7 days later, polyether polyurethane sponge discs were implanted subcutaneously on each side of the rat’s back as the foreign implants to induce FBR. The next day, omental transposition were performed. The disc on the left side of each rat’s ba… Show more
