ABSTRACT A common and prevailing complication for patients with abdominal surgery is
the peritoneal adhesion that follows during the post‐operative recovery period …

Postoperative adhesions remain a significant complication of abdominal surgery although
the wide variety of physical barriers has been developed to reduce the incidence of …

The abnormal joining of anatomic structures after abdominal and pelvic surgery can lead to
such major complications as bowel obstruction or infertility. Poly (vinyl alcohol)(PVA) …

The objective of the study was to evaluate the effect of a novel biodegradable membrane on
the prevention of postoperative adhesion formation. The membrane was prepared by …

In surgical hernia repair, the intraabdominal adhesion formation needs to be prevented. As
currently used prosthetic mesh materials, antiadhesion properties of polypropylene (PP) still …

Purpose: PVA/CMC (polyvinyl alcohol/carboxymethyl cellulose) hydrogel fulfills various
physiochemical properties required for an adhesion barrier and has shown good anti …

Persistence of postoperative adhesions can lead to fatal complications in patients
undergoing abdominal and pelvic surgery, even years after the operation. Thus, effective …

Surgical operations on the peritoneum are often associated with the formation of adhesions,
which can interfere with the normal functioning of the internal organs. The effectiveness of …

In this study a degradable barrier, composed of a poly (ethyleneglycol) and poly
(butyleneterephthalate) copolymer (1000 Polyactive™ 55/45), was investigated for the …

Tissue adhesions cause severe and life-threatening conditions, including pain, infertility,
and heart defects. The purpose of this study is to develop an anti-adhesion membrane that …
