BACKGROUND Peritoneal seeding after abdominal surgery is a well known route of metastasis in intra-abdominal solid tumours. Direct mechanical contamination, local peritoneal trauma and subsequent inflammation, postoperative immunosuppression, and laparoscopic surgery are the proposed predisposing factors for this type of metastasis. These factors probably result in enhanced adhesion or growth o...

objectives: to investigate the effects of intravenous infliximab in preventing the formation of peritoneal adhesions in an animal model of rat. methods: this was an experimental study being performed in animal laboratory of shiraz university of medical sciences during 2012. sixty albino rats were randomly assigned in to three groups by random design method. the first group received single infli...

Digital Comprehensive Summaries of Uppsala Dissertations from the Faculty of Medicine 1217. 65 pp. Uppsala: Acta Universitatis Upsaliensis. ISBN 978-91-554-9557-2. Peritoneal adhesions occur in up to 93% of adults after peritoneal trauma during surgery. Most adhesions are asymptomatic but can cause female ...

Postoperative peritoneal adhesions (PPA) can be formed by any damage to mesothelial cells of peritoneum. Many methods were used prevent the formation PPA. Our purpose is appraise efficiency virgin olive oil on PPA before and after traumatic adhesions. A total thirty-two rats divided into four equal groups. Group1 (sham group): Virgin was applied intraperitoneally. Group2 (control Adhesion model...

peritoneal adhesions are challenging in abdominal surgery. in spite of different kinds of treatments still no definitive and effective treatment is suggested. to determine the prevention effects of intraperitoneal (ip) methylene blue in post surgical adhesion formation 44 rabbits were randomly divided in two groups of equal number. group i received an intra peritoneal injection of a 1% suspensi...

INTRODUCTION Postoperative adhesions after abdominal or pelvic surgery remain an important clinical problem causing infertility, pain and bowel obstruction. Their prevention and treatment remains poorly understood and inadequate. The formation of adhesions is caused by the organization of a fibrin matrix, an organization that takes place during the coagulation process when there is suppression ...

normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa microsoftinternetexplorer4 background : adhesions, as abnormal scared tissue, are common following gynecological operations and can cause chronic pelvic pain, infertility, poor outcomes of future surgeries, and intestinal obstruction. oxygen free radicals are known as one of the main causes of adhesion formation. this study is to evaluate the effect...

Postoperative peritoneal adhesion is one of the serious issues because it induces severe clinical disorders. In this study, we prepared biodegradable and injectable hydrogel composed of N,O-carboxymethyl chitosan (NOCC) and aldehyde hyaluronic acid (AHA), and assessed its anti-adhesion effect in a rigorous and severe recurrent adhesion model which is closer to clinical conditions. The flexible ...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES At present, we do not have a reliable method for the early diagnosis of colorectal anastomotic leakage (AL). We tested peritoneal flexible endoscopy through a port placed in the abdominal wall in the early postoperative course, as a new diagnostic method for detection of this complication and evaluated the suggested method for safety, feasibility, and accuracy. METHO...
