【Abstract】ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of high molecular bio-degradable film on preventing peritoneal adhesion.
MethodsOne hundred and twenty rats were divided into control group, non-bio-degradable film group and polycaprolactone (PCL) group. Animal models of peritoneal adhesion made by operations on rats serve as control group. In the study, non-bio-degradable film and biodegradable, namely PCL films sensitive to pseudomonas enzyme, were put into the opening of peritoneum. The effect of the films on peritoneal adhesion was examined on 1, 3, 7 and 30 d after operation.
ResultsPeritoneal adhesion was found in all the rats of control group and very low in PCL group and non-bio-degradable film group.
ConclusionPCL film can effectively prevent the formation of postoperative peritoneal adhesion.
