  • Title: [Damage and regeneration of the skeletal muscles in the presence of foreign bodies].
    Author: Korényi-Both A, Németh L.
    Journal: Acta Chir Acad Sci Hung; 1975; 16(3):259-69. PubMed ID: 1229802.
    Abstract:
    Studies of experimental muscle regeneration revealed that certain constituents of talc are actively damaging the regeneration of muscle tissue and produce characteristic reaction of the tuberculoid type. Bio-SorbR which contains starch and has been marketed for a similar use affects regeneration only as a foreign body. The elimination of talc from surgical practice and its substitution by some neutral material is recommended.
