In Search of the Best Peritoneal Adhesion Model: Comparison of Different Techniques in a Rat Model
چکیده انگلیسی

BackgroundAdhesion-related complications after abdominal surgery result in significant morbidity and costs. Results from animal studies investigating prevention or treatment of adhesions are limited due to lack of consistency in existing animal models. The aim of this study was to compare quality and quantity of adhesions in four different models and to find the best model.Materials and MethodsThis study was approved by the University of Missouri Animal Care and Use Committee (ACUC). Forty female rats were randomly assigned to four different groups of 10 animals each. Adhesion created was performed utilizing the four techniques: Group 1 – parietal peritoneum excision (PPE), Group 2 – parietal peritoneum abrasion (PPA), Group 3 – peritoneal button creation (PBC), and Group 4 – cecal abrasion (CA). Rats were allowed to recover and necropsy was performed on postoperative d 14. Adhesions were scored by an established quantitative and qualitative scoring systems. The midline incision served as the control in each animal.ResultsThe four groups were not equal with respect to both quantity score (P < 0.001) and quality score (P = 0.042). The PBC group had the highest quantity of adhesions. The highest quality of adhesion was seen in the PPE group. A multivariate analysis carried out to quantify the performance of each model clearly demonstrated that PBC exhibited the best results in terms of both quantity and quality.ConclusionsThe button technique (PBC) is most consistent and reproducible technique for an intra-abdominal adhesion model. This model can help in the study and development of substances to prevent adhesion formation in the future.
