- W4230586238 abstract "Postoperative adhesions occur in 60% to 90% of patients undergoing major gynecologic surgery and represent one of the most common causes of intestinal obstruction in the industrialized world. The incidence of adhesion-related intestinal obstruction after gynecologic surgery for benign conditions without hysterectomy is approximately 0.3%, increasing to 2% to 3% among patients who undergo hysterectomy, and is as high as 5% if a radical hysterectomy is performed. Other adhesion-related complications include chronic pelvic pain, ureteral obstruction, and voiding dysfunction. Intraperitoneal adhesions also can limit the effectiveness of intraperitoneal therapeutic agents used in cancer treatment. Postoperative adhesions are sequelae of impaired fibrinolysis of the fibrin and cellular exudate after peritoneal injury. Adequate blood supply is essential for normal fibrinolysis. Therefore factors that increase ischemia and potentiate adhesion formation include thermal injury, infection, presence of a foreign body, and radiation-induced endarteritis. Only recently, appropriate animal models have been developed to study the process of adhesion formation and prevention. Until clinical confirmation of findings from these investigations exists, only a meticulous surgical technique can be advocated to minimize these untoward effects of surgery.
