A technology for obtaining a biomatrix on the basis of polypropylene mesh, used in clinical surgery, and cultured fetal fibroblasts is proposed. The method was developed on experimental animal cells. It includes culturing of rat fetal fibroblasts on fibers of a polypropylene mesh, treated with wheat germ lectin. This technology can be used for obtaining a biomatrix with fibroblasts of different origin. This biomatrix can be used in experimental and clinical surgery for dressing and stimulation of effective healing of mechanical injuries to the connective tissue.
