A resilient, substantially flat, non-adherent flexible wound dressing which remains flexible when dry, of hydrophobic material capable of retaining substantial quantities of fluid wound exudate. One or both major surfaces may be non-adherent wound-contacting surfaces which may include fenestrated film or interrupted exposed portions of flattened sheetlike fused fibers having a filmlike appearance, or both. The interior of hydrophobic fibers is arranged to retain fluid wound exudate by capillary action. If superimposed fenestrated film is used, it may be united to the hydrophobic fibers either at or inside the dressing edges, or both, preferably by melt sealing.
