Battling adhesions: from understanding to prevention

open access: yesBMC Biomedical Engineering, 2019
Adhesions represent a major burden in clinical practice, particularly following abdominal, intrauterine, pericardial and tendon surgical procedures. Adhesions are initiated by a disruption in the epithelial or mesothelial layer of tissue, which leads to ...

Adhesions in the epidural space caused by frequent epidural blocks

open access: yesJA Clinical Reports, 2017
We report a case of adhesions in the epidural space caused by more than 200 times epidural blocks that were observed with epiduroscopy. A 41-year-old man had repeatedly undergone lumbar epidural blocks to treat pain in his leg, resulting in decreased ...

Predicting Intra-Abdominal Adhesions in Repeat Cesarean Sections: Scar Tissue Characteristics, Striae Gravidarum, and Corset Use

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Obstetrics & Gynecology
Background: This study evaluated whether abdominal scar tissue characteristics, duration of corset use, and striae gravidarum (SG) density are associated with the severity of intra-abdominal adhesions (IAA) in repeat cesarean sections (

Arthroscopic Lysis of Adhesions for the Stiff Total Knee Arthroplasty

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, 2014
The management of the stiff knee after total knee arthroplasty is controversial. Manipulation under anesthesia and open lysis of adhesions are techniques that can theoretically address the fibrous scar tissue, but their efficacy has been shown to be ...
