Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Nanotechnologies applied to General Surgery and Emergency Surgery: The Buckypaper as a new fixing method for prosthetic materials in the treatment of abdominal wall hernias in humans, in laparotomic procedures and as a new device for the treatment of solid cancer and hematopoietic system tumors. The experimentation on this new material, preliminary conducted on breed female rabbit New Zeeland, will be applicable to human, if the results in terms of toxicity and durability will be comfortable.

- description
- laparotomy intervention with the incision of 10 cm navel-pubis will be performed, splaying of the skin and subcutaneous layers, then will be incised the fascia plane, and muscles. Ten rabbits (hereafter defined as BPR1-BPR10) will receive 2x2cm2 samples of BP selfstanding felt in a pocket created between muscular fascia and large muscles of the abdominal wall.
