Marlex mesh is a synthetic material which has been used clinically to replace ligamentous structures. It serves as a scaffold for infiltration of the fibroblasts eventually becoming mature fibrocytes. In dogs, almost totally mature fibrocytes appear within the framework of the Marlex mesh prosthesis by the end of 3 months of healing.
