The purpose: Comparative study of rehabilitation processes after implantation of synthetic and biological materials into the tissue of abdominal wall. Materials and Methods: Histological methods have been used to study tissue samples from 15 implantation area of xenopericardial plate and polypropylene net of adult rabbits in 3, 6 and 12 months after the surgery. Results: It has been found out that polypropylene net implantation in the tissue of anterior abdominal wall causes inflammation and growth of connective tissue only around it. Xenopericardial plate implantation is accompanied by lesser inflammation an3 it connects with surrounding connective tissue. Conclusion: It has been revealed that xenopericardium is more likely to use in herniologythan synthetic net. It provides greater mechanical strength of abdominal wall in the later periods after the surgical intervention.
