Hi Annie, I believe TAH stands for total abdominal hysterectomy. The
term lyse means to cut or remove. It is very important to find a Doctor
who is knowledgeable about adhesions and their relatd disorders. Your
surgeon needs to practice microsurgical techniques that minimize trauma,
ischemia(lack of blood supply), foreign bodies, hemorrhage, raw surfaces
and infection to reduce adhesion formation. Most gyns who encounter
dense adhesions will almost immediately resort to laparotomy,perform a
big incision(ie start the adhesion problem all over again),and then
wonder why the patient becomes symptomatic again in weeks! There are
experienced laparoscopic surgeons out there who rarely have to resort to
laparotomy. Hope this info helps and good luck. Sherry Marie
