Abstract

This review provides an overview of the background evidence that has led to current recommendations on adhesion reduction management. The extent, epidemiology and financial implications of abdominopelvic adhesions and their related complications is discussed. Strategies for the prevention of adhesions are presented including a review of current anti-adhesion agents. Finally, the potential impact of progressing routine anti-adhesion strategies and indeed the potential impact of not doing this are considered.
