[Laparoscopic lysis of adhesions--a simple method of diagnosis and therapy of abdominal pain caused by adhesions]

Abstract

Laparoscopy is a simple method for establishing abdominal adhesions, even in presence of typical abdominal pain. Provocation of pain with drawing the adhesions under local anesthesia is very helpful in achieving a selective adhesiolysis. 70% of our patients improved with the procedure and 29% were without any complaint.
