New and Simple Approach for Preventing Postoperative Peritoneal Adhesions: Do not Touch the Peritoneum without Viscous Liquid-A Multivariate Analysis.

Background. Postoperative peritoneal adhesions (PPAs) are an unsolved and serious problem in abdominal surgery. Method.

Comparison of totally extraperitoneal technique and darn plication of primary inguinal hernia.

Introduction: This prospective, randomized, controlled clinical study aimed to assess the perioperative and long-term results of primary inguinal hernia repair and to compare the results for a totally extraperitoneal (TEP) procedure with the results of patients undergoing darn plication.

Materials And Methods: For this study, 166 patients with unilateral inguinal hernias were randomly assigned to undergo either TEP (n=78) or darn plication (n=88).

Results: The mean operation time for darn plication (16±14.

A novel colonic anastomosis technique involving fixed polyglycolic acid mesh.

Background: Polyglycolic acid mesh (PAM) reinforcement of colonic anastomoses were evaluated.

Methods: Twenty female albino rabbits were divided into two groups. Each rabbit underwent segmental colonic resection with single-layer anastomosis.

Ability of the ankaferd blood stopper® to prevent parenchymal bleeding in an experimental hepatic trauma model.

Unlabelled: Hepatic parenchymal bleeding (HPB) is a major problem following both trauma and elective hepatic procedures. The present study investigated the effect of the Ankaferd Blood Stopper® (ABS) on HPB.

Method(s): A total of 20 rats were used.

Efficacy of glycerol in preventing postoperative peritoneal adhesions.

Aim: To evaluate the efficacy of glycerol in preventing postoperative peritoneal adhesions.

Materials And Methods: Forty Wistar albino female rats were randomly assigned into four groups of 10 rats each. Rats in group 1 were each injected intraperitoneally with 0.

Efficacy of octyl methoxycinnamate in preventing postoperative peritoneal adhesions: an experimental model.

Aim: To evaluate the effect of octyl methoxycinnamate on preventing postoperative peritoneal adhesions (PPA).

Methods: Forty outbred Wistar albino female rats (mean weight, 230 +/- 25 g; mean age, 6 months) were divided into four equal groups. In Group 1, 0.

A new approach for decreasing postoperative peritoneal adhesions: preventing peritoneal trauma with soybean oil.

Background: Covering peritoneal surfaces with soybean oil may decrease peritoneal adhesions by preventing peritoneal trauma.

Method(s): Forty female albino Wistar rats were divided into four equal groups. In Group 1, soybean oil only (0.
