[Endoscopy in the diagnosis and treatment of abdominal adhesions].
Therapeutic and diagnostic laparoscopy was performed in 48 patients with chronic abdominal pain due to an adhesive process in the abdominal cavity. Laparoscopic treatment was applied only in patients who experienced pain when the adhesions were pulled with instruments. The adhesions were divided, the vessels were coagulated, and the organs were separated from the adhesions with instruments introduced into the abdominal cavity through additional punctures made in the anterior abdominal wall. The immediate results of the treatment were good in 44 out of 48 patients (91.6%). The late-term results were studied in 46 patients in follow-up periods of 12 months to 6 years. Recurrences were found in only 4 cases. Complications requiring special treatment were not encountered. Therapeutic and operative endoscopy is an effective and safe method for treating patients with adhesive disease manifested by abdominal pain.
