Purpose: To evaluate macro and microscopically the adhesions developed after using the anti-adherence compound sodium hyaluronate and carboxymethylcellulose (SH-CBMC) gel and to determine the volume of the adhesions using a stereological estimation.
Methods: The study was experimental, random, comparative, and prospective. The subjects of the study were male Wistar rats divided in three groups (n = 10).
Article Synopsis
- The study explored the effectiveness of a polymer-based absorbable bioprosthesis with bone scaffold in treating bile duct injuries in pigs following cholecystectomy.
- At three follow-up points (1, 3, and 6 months), no significant liver function changes or complications were observed, and imaging studies demonstrated no obstructions in the bile duct.
- The results indicated that the bioprosthesis successfully supported tissue regeneration, suggesting it could be a viable option for replacing the bile duct in cases of injury or cancer.
