ABSTRACT:
A surgical implant with a basic structure, preferably configured as an implant mesh, contains an anabolic steroid and a corticosteroid. The implant is preferably designed to release these active substances after implantation. It becomes incorporated rapidly and effectively, without any undesired scar contraction occurring.
