Effect of intra-abdominal administration of ascites fluid on postoperative peritoneal adhesion in rat model: A randomized controlled trail.

Introduction: Intra-abdominal adhesions are typically found after the most surgical procedures. Normally, most adhesions are asymptomatic; however, few individuals experience postoperative adhesion-related problems such as small bowel obstruction, pelvic pain, infertility, or other complications. We aimed to evaluate the preventive effect of the ascites fluid for postoperative peritoneal adhesions in rat models.
