Do you know if teh surgeon used an adhesion barrier. We used to hear of some surgeons on this board: Dr. Jay Redan, Dr. John Semertzides, and Dr. Clark Gerhart who use various types of adhesion barriers like glues, meshes, and sprays which supposedly stop adhesion growth after they have been cut out. Please keep us posted.
