Adhesions following intraperitoneal surgery are frequent causes of small bowel obstruction. Attempts to prevent postoperative adhesions have mostly proven disappointing clinically. Currently used by ophthalmologists in ocular surface disorders, amniotic membrane transplantation can reduce inflammation and promote re-epithelization. We used amniotic membrane for facilitating peritoneal regeneration and prevention of adhesions with surgical trauma.
