A Cargile membrane was a sterile membrane made from the peritoneum of the ox, and was the first commercially available adhesion barrier.[1] Its first reported use was in 1905.[2] It was used in abdominal surgery to interpose between raw surfaces and thus prevent the formation of adhesions.[3] It was also used to envelop freshly sutured nerves or tendons, and to protect wounds.
It was designed primarily to cover surfaces over which peritoneum has been removed, especially where a sterile membrane would lessen the formation of adhesion. It was available in the size of 4 × 6 inches, and sometimes used as packaging or a protective sheath.
It was named for American surgeon Charles H. Cargile (1853–1930),[4] who first used it ca. 1900, according to Dorland's Medical Dictionary.
