Abstract
Recombinant human lubricin significantly reduced both macroscopic and microscopic intra-abdominal adhesions in the cecal abrasion group. The cecal enterotomy group showed modest macroscopic adhesion reduction. Future study using higher concentration of lubricin solution are needed to investigate its toxicity and more profound antiadhesion properties in significant operations.
