The procedure of adhesion lysis is intended to relieve injury or pain associated with scar tissue (adhesions), whether caused by bowel obstruction, infertility, or difficulty moving.
If you have any chronic abdominal pain, a recurrent bowel obstruction, digestive problems, or infertility following your previous pelvic or abdominal surgery, you should consult a physician.
You will require the following preparations: blood tests, imaging scans, fasting for your procedure, and a medication and anesthetic assessment.
The incision site(s) will be used by your surgeon to cut and remove the adhesive. Depending on the location and severity of the adhesive, this procedure will either be done laparoscopically or through normal laparotomy with assistance from general anesthesia to allow for normal dislocated organ function/movement.
The adhesion lysis procedure typically takes 1-3 hours. The actual time requested will depend on the specific type and location of your adhesive lysis.
- Infection
- Bleeding
- Bowel or organ injury
- Recurrence of adhesions
- Anesthesia-related complications
- Relief from chronic abdominal pain
- Restoration of bowel function
- Reduced risk of bowel obstruction
- Improved fertility in some cases
- Improved quality of life
Most patients start walking within 24 hours and resume a light diet within a few days. Full recovery typically takes 2 to 4 weeks, depending on the surgical approach and overall health status.
Adhesion lysis success varies depending on the type of procedure performed (60-90% effectively relieves pain/obstruction). Newer techniques under development to address this problem have shown promise. Factors that determine whether a procedure will be successful include the cause of the condition, the level of surgical skill required, and any patient-specific issues.

+99Process Involved for Adhesion Lysis
- Preoperative Investigations and Tests: Blood tests, along with CT and/or MRI scans are done to identify where the adhesions are located and how extensive they are, so that the surgeon can plan how they intend to perform the operation.
- Bowel Preparation and Anesthesia Evaluation: If bowel preparation is necessary, the patient may be required to fast prior to the surgery. An anesthesiologist also evaluates the patient's fitness to have a general anesthetic.
- Removal of Surgical Adhesions: During surgery, the Surgeon removes the bands of scar tissue causing the adhesions, either laparoscopically or through open surgery. The Surgery takes place while the patient is under general anesthesia.
- Examination of Abdominal Organs: To ensure that all of the organs in the abdomen have been fully released from any adhesion and to restore normal movement to all of the organs, each of the abdominal organs is examined during the Surgery.
- Post-Surgery Care and Pain Management: After Surgery, the patient will be monitored to ensure there is no bowel obstruction, infection, or inadequate pain management.
- Follow-Up and Rehabilitation: The purpose of post-surgery follow-up visits is to confirm that the patient has fully healed. The visits will also include recommendations for exercise and diet to help reduce the risk of an adhesion returning.
