Abstract

Since our earlier report in the Annals of Surgery in September 1960 on laboratory and clinical study of dimethyl silozane (Silicone) and halogenated carbon (Teflon), continued study and work has been carried on with these materials and with diisocynate polyether (Etheron). Because of numerous inquiries from individuals and from surgical services as to the present state of decision and of acceptance of these materials, it is thought that this report is indicated.
