Group 3 (Seprafilm™ group) underwent cecal abrasion and intraperitoneal Seprafilm™ application.

Five rats (one in the control group, two in the honey group and two in the Seprafilm™ group) died before re-laparotomy. These rats were replaced and the adhesion operation was redone for corresponding groups and included in the study. The intra-abdominal adhesions and histopathological fibrosis scores are summarized in table <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#tbl3">3</a>. Of the ten rats in the control group, five developed grade 4 adhesions, three developed grade 3 adhesions (Figure <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig1">1C</a>), and two developed grade 2 adhesions.

Of the patients who require abdominal re-operation, 30–40% have postoperative adhesion-related intestinal obstruction. Enterocutaneous fistulas, intra-abdominal abscesses and ureteral obstructions can also develop as a result of PIAAs. In addition to causing substantial abdominal and pelvic pain, PIAAs are the leading cause of secondary infertility in women.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib10">10</a>, <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib11">11</a> Therefore, PIAA formations not only represent a significant expenditure for the healthcare system, but they can also result in loss of work force capacity and impaired quality of life. In addition, PIAAs are a major source of morbidity following laparotomy and are the most common cause of high financial burdens. Total costs related to adhesions have been estimated at 1.2 billion U.S. dollars per year.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib12">12</a>,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib13">13</a> Moreover, complications from adhesions after gynecological surgery were estimated to result in 226.8 million U.S. dollars in health care costs in 2006.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib14">14</a></p><p id="para130" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Adhesion formation is a complicated process. Although the pathophysiology of adhesion formation is widely understood, an absolute solution to this problem does not yet exist. Adhesions can result from mechanical peritoneal damage, tissue ischemia or the presence of foreign materials. Additionally, two areas of injury must be in contact with each other. Both fibrinogenesis and fibrinolysis are activated, and a distortion of the dynamic balance between these two processes leads to adhesion formation.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib13">13</a>,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib15">15</a></p><p id="para140" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">There are many experimental models for provoking peritoneal adhesions. The scraping model is very effective in engendering peritoneal adhesions because it involves two stages of damage, direct mechanical intestinal wall damage from gauze scraping and ischemic damage from vascular clamping (Figure <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig1">1A</a>, <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig1">1B</a>).<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib8">8</a> As this model mimics abdominal surgery, we chose to use it in this study.</p><p id="para150" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">PIAAs at the peritoneum most commonly form within seven to ten days and become persistent after fourteen days. Therefore, this stage is critical in preventing adhesion formation, and efforts to combat adhesion formation concentrate mostly on this phase. We chose to wait ten days before performing re-laparotomy because other studies have shown the adhesion scores peak at this time.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib1">1</a>,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib16">16</a></p><p id="para160" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">During the past decade, a variety of commercially available substances and materials have been used in attempts to reduce PIAAs.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib14">14</a> All of these materials have unique compositions and characteristics, with limitations and advantages regarding their use in the clinical setting. Ideally, such a barrier should be anti-adhesive, highly biocompatible, resorbable, adherent to the traumatized surface, effective on an oozing surface, applicable through the laparoscope and relatively inexpensive. As yet, such an ideal barrier does not exist.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib14">14</a></p><p id="para170" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The mechanical separation of peritoneal surfaces represents a strategy for blocking peritoneal adhesion formation. This approach is particularly attractive, especially if the device can be easily applied by the surgeon and if the material is biodegradable and does not cause systemic effects. A bioresorbable membrane consisting of sodium hyaluronate and carboxymethylcellulose (Seprafilm™) is one such material used to prevent surgical adhesions. Within 24 hours of application, the Seprafilm™ turns into a gel, which remains in place to separate adhesiogenic tissues during the first few days after surgery when adhesions are most likely to develop. The material is cleared from the body within four weeks.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib2">2</a>,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib4">4</a>,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib12">12</a></p><p id="para180" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Prospective, randomized trials have demonstrated that Seprafilm™ significantly reduces the incidence, severity and extent of adhesions following two-stage restorative proctocolectomy and uterine myomectomy. It has also been demonstrated to decrease the incidence of small-bowel obstruction after intestinal resection.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib10">10</a>,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib12">12</a>,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib17">17</a>,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib18">18</a> This benefit was confirmed in our study, where Seprafilm™ was shown to significantly reduce postoperative adhesion formation compared to the control group. However, the therapeutic and physiological effects of Seprafilm™ may be limited to the site of application. The fact that the membrane is thin, crisp and filmy may make it difficult to use. This may be particularly true during difficult abdominal wound closures or cases involving a small incision.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib2">2</a></p><p id="para190" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Natural honey has been used to treat burns and decubitis wounds since ancient times. Honey is becoming increasingly popular as a modern wound-dressing material, and studies have been published demonstrating its effectiveness. When honey is applied to wounds, it has been found to reduce inflammation, swelling and pain, eliminating the need for surgical removal, and induces a rapid clearance of infections. In the literature, it has been reported that honey carries no toxic effects. Honey is also considered sterile and inhibits the growth of both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. It has antifungal, cytostatic, anti-inflammatory, antitumoral and antimetastatic effects and promotes wound healing.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib8">8</a>,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib19">19</a> However, studies regarding its effects on preventing PIAAs are limited.</p><p id="para200" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The mechanisms underlying the effects of honey on wound healing are not entirely clear. However, several different characteristics of honey may have effects on various steps of the wound-healing process. Aysan, et al. suggested that one or more of the ingredients of honey, including cafeic acid, benzoic acid, phenolic acid, flavanoid glycons, inhibin and catalase, may be responsible for its effect. Inhibin and catalase have also been shown to promote the proliferation of epithelial cells. Another possible mechanism by which honey can promote wound healing is by increasing fibroblastic activity. Honey is hygroscopic, hypertonic and has a low pH. Hygroscopic substances decrease edema and constitute a fluid barrier to inhibit deepening of the wound. Hypertonicity contributes to antibacterial and antifungal properties. Thus, a hypertonic environment with a low pH and low moisture may promote the wound-healing process by degrading native collagen within the wound.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib8">8</a>, <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib20">20</a></p><p id="para210" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In the present study, we utilized a rat model to compare two types of anti-adhesive devices: an anti-adhesive sheet barrier membrane and honey. We found both materials, if applied just prior to laparotomy closure, significantly reduced the formation of PIAAs. Although the mechanism of action is not clear, intraperitoneal administration of honey can reduce PIAAs. Our study indicates that honey may be used as an anti-adhesive barrier and can produce results similar to those of various types of commercially available materials.</p></span></span>" "textoCompletoSecciones" => array:1 [ "secciones" => array:6 [ 0 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "xpalclavsec1584633" "titulo" => "KEYWORDS" ] 1 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "cesec10" "titulo" => "INTRODUCTION" ] 2 => array:3 [ "identificador" => "cesec20" "titulo" => "MATERIALS AND METHODS" "secciones" => array:1 [ 0 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "cesec30" "titulo" => "Statistics" ] ] ] 3 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "cesec40" "titulo" => "RESULTS" ] 4 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "cesec50" "titulo" => "DISCUSSION" ] 5 => array:1 [ "titulo" => "REFERENCES" ] ] ] "pdfFichero" => "main.pdf" "tienePdf" => true "fechaRecibido" => "2008-10-26" "fechaAceptado" => "2008-12-29" "PalabrasClave" => array:1 [ "en" => array:1 [ 0 => array:4 [ "clase" => "keyword" "titulo" => "KEYWORDS" "identificador" => "xpalclavsec1584633" "palabras" => array:5 [ 0 => "Postoperative intra-abdominal adhesions" 1 => "Seprafilm" 2 => "Honey" 3 => "Rat" 4 => "Cecal abrasion" ] ] ] ] "tieneResumen" => true "resumen" => array:1 [ "en" => array:2 [ "resumen" => "<span id="ceabs10" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="cestitle10">BACKGROUND:</span><p id="spara70" class="elsevierStyleSimplePara elsevierViewall">Abdominal surgery can lead to postoperative intra-abdominal adhesions (PIAAs) with significant morbidity and mortality.
