AbstractFormation of postoperative adhesions is frequent in open surgery technique operations. By causing intestinal obstruction, infertility and very likely chronic abdominal pain and by complicating reoperations they place a significant burden on the health care system. The risk of formation of adhesions is high in colorectal surgery and adnexal surgery. Their formation is also increased by intraoperative peritonitis and contamination. Factors that can be applied to prevent the formation of adhesions include the surgical technique and instruments and products decreasing the formation of adhesions.
