Recent years have seen important advances in the technology and
techniques available to surgeons performing gynecologic surgery as
well as reconstructive of clinical pelvic procedures. These
developments took place in a wide variety settings from regional
teaching centers to private clinical facilities. In 1996, the
leading investigators from around the world gathered to discuss the
present status of pelvic surgery and adhesion prevention with a
look toward the future of patient care. This volume contains the
proceedings of that meeting: the Third Interna tional Congress on
Pelvic Surgery and Adhesion Prevention. Each chapter in cludes the
material presented at the congress as well as a timely update of
the authors' latest research and clinical thinking. Presentation
integrating basic and clinical science provide the basis for con
sidering peritoneal repair after surgery including the interaction
of growth factors and other biochemical messengers. Research has
increased the understanding of mesothelial reepithelialization and
has led to new surgical technologies to reduce adhesion fonnation.
A state-of-the-art review of emerging surgical adjuvants for
adhesion prevention is provided, including discussion of barriers,
gels, and poly mers as well as "designer" drugs effective at
modifying the peritoneal response to injury. Assessment of clinical
outcome in a wide variety of gynecologic surgical procedures brings
into focus the benefits available as a result of these new tech
nologies."
