Adhesions can cause a wide range of problems, complaints and
hazards, even after simple abdominal procedures, such as
appendectomy, with complications ranging from recurrent discomfort
and pain to intestinal obstruction. Postsurgical adhesions increase
the risk of following operations of the abdominal and thoracic
cavity. They impair peritoneal dialysis and chemotherapy and play a
crucial part in laparoscopic procedures. Adhesion-related problems
account for a large amount of clinical work and have a significant
socioeconomic impact. This book presents the current knowledge on
the aetiopathogenesis of adhesion formation as well as the
available methods for their prevention and control. Experts in the
field contribute to clinical standards for preventive measures to
control the formation of postoperative adhesions
