In the long term follow-up some of the patients might continue to experience pain, where 14.5% had a 3rd look laparoscopy, in which 3/4 were confirmed with adhesion reformation. However the severity of adhesions was reduced by 91.4% comparing to initial surgery.
Here are some patients with about 3-6 years adhesion free period. And many on the list at http://www.endogyn.com/pat-kontakt-int.htm are between 12-60 months.

Katie, Do you know Dr. K's success rate? Dr. S's is 50 to 55 percent which isn't good enough for me to go through a 3rd surgery. Thanks. Linda
