[Adherence formation following different forms of treatment of peritoneal lesions].
The authors analyse the adhesion forming capacity of various forms of treating a peritoneal lesion. There were four groups each of 10 rats, all receiving the same peritoneal lesion. The control group did not receive any treatment for this injury; in the remaining three, the peritoneal lesion was treated with electrocoagulation, mechanical suture or manual suture. The animals were killed after 30 days, and adhesions quantified using an original method of the authors, which evaluates number, thickness, tenacity, vascularisation and site. Electrocoagulation significantly generated the smallest number of adhesions. The application of suture stimulated the formation of adhesions to a larger extent, manual suture more so than the mechanical method.
