SDH,
What procedure does this dr. do that gets rid of adhesions. My opinion is
that you will most likely get them back unless they use some sort of
barrier. You are having your fifth surgery. I think a open surgery causes
more trauma to the body, hence more adhesions.

Hi Everyone-
I am having my fifth surgery in August to remove colon adhesions, and I
am a little concerned about the procedure to remove them. I have had
four operations in the past two years to remove adhesions, (one of them
being a hysterectomy)and all of the operations were laparoscopies. Since
having the hysterectomy and having my condition worsen, I went to doctor
after doctor to get their opinions on adhesiolysis. The general
consensus from all of these doctors was that they felt that the only way
to really remove adhesions and see all of them was to perform a
laparotomy, which is a completely open surgery.
