Peritoneal adhesion :
Major health care problem
282,000 hospitalization – US $ 1.18 bil. (1988)
Source of morbidity :
bowel obstruction, infertility, pelvic pain etc

Adhesion-related research :
• Cellular and molecular mechanisms of adhesion formation
• Developing agents to prevent adhesion formation

Peritoneal wound healing – adhesion formation:

The entire surface becomes epithelialized simultaneously
following peritoneal defect (not gradually from the borders
as of skin wounds)
Exhibits characteristics of “too much repair”
Formation of peritoneal adhesion displays many phenomena
which can also be observed in other tissues

Molecules involved :
Cytokines
- adhesiogenic (IL-6, TNF-, EGF, TGF-, IL-1 )
- anti adhesion (IL-10 – inhibits IL-1, IL-6 & TNF- expression,
IL-4 – inhibits monocytes & macrophages effect)

Conclusion
Formation of peritoneal adhesion displays many phenomena
which can also be observed in other tissues
The balance of cytokine production orchestered cellular and molecular
events in peritoneal response to injury
Minimizing cell injury may prevent adhesion formation
