With increased experience in the use of silicone elastomer great toe implants, there has been a commensurate increased incidence of foreign body reaction to these prostheses. In the mid- to late 1970s, the use of Dacron-meshed hemi-implants was abandoned due to the high incidence of such reactions. Although previously thought to be due to the Dacron mesh itself, the authors content that it was, rather, due to the inferior grade of silicone elastomer used in these products.
随着使用硅橡胶大脚趾植入物的经验增加，对这些假体的异物反应发生率也相应增加。在20世纪70年代中后期，由于这种反应的高发生率，涤纶网半植入物的使用被放弃。尽管此前认为是由于涤纶网本身，但作者认为，更确切地说，是由于这些产品中使用的硅橡胶等级较低。
