Abstract:

After surgery, intra-abdominal intestinal adhesions present a big problem that is not solved yet. The formation of adhesions begins at the moment when the discontinuity of the peritoneal integrity occurs and the endocrine metabolic response is initiated at a cellular level to repair the defect caused in the peritoneum's surface. However, preventing adhesions from forming in the abdominal portion is considered to be a correlation, from the moment of the execution of the techniques to the total recovery of the patient. Containment measures and the best healing of the tissue can be applied, such as; the use of bio-resorbable membranes and specific dressings emphasized in this analysis. Ensuring stability and a lower probability of the development of the tissular adhesion.
