| Popis: | Postoperative adhesions are complications after any kind of surgery. Adhesions occur after almost every abdominal operation and are very common. Most of the adhesions are unnoticed and have little or no effect for the patient, but in some cases, adhesions can lead to serious problems as bowel obstruction or fertility problems in women, with risk of chronic pelvic pain. Additional surgery can be necessary. Annual costs for additional surgery due to bowel obstruction are tremendous. |
