Self-gripping mesh (Progrip, Sofradim Production, Trévoux, France) was introduced in 2006 as a synthetic prosthetic material for reinforcement of the abdominal wall in open inguinal hernia repair. As of September 2022, the self-gripping mesh has been implanted 4 million times. In June 2014 at the annual Mesh congress in Paris during an informal conversation with Dr. Chastan, Dr. Muysoms became intrigued by the history of the invention and creation of this self-gripping mesh. His fascination on this topic, was the initial bead implanted for this project to write down the history of the creation of self-gripping mesh.
自固定补片（Progrip，法国索弗拉丹生产公司，特雷武）于2006年推出，作为一种合成假体材料，用于开放腹股沟疝修补术中加强腹壁。截至2022年9月，自固定补片已植入400万次。2014年6月，在巴黎举行的年度补片大会上，在与沙斯坦博士的一次非正式交谈中，穆伊索姆斯博士对这种自固定补片的发明和创造历史产生了兴趣。他对这个话题的着迷，是为记录自固定补片的创造历史而开展这个项目的最初契机。
