Conditions
Adhesive Peritoneal Band
Registration Number
NCT06859307
Lead Sponsor
Zagazig University
Brief Summary

Adhesive Intestinal obstruction is an inevitable complication of abdominal surgery with significant morbidity associated with poor quality of life and predispose to repeated hospitalization. Most of them (73% - 90%) can be managed conservatively.Despite advances in surgery, 15to 30% require surgical intervention primarily or due to failure of conservative management. Because of the nature of the disease recurrence has been estimated to be 30%.Many attempts to prevent formation of postoperative adhesions have been tried. In this trial, we will study the effect of corticosteroids and FFP in prevention of adhesive small bowel obstruction recurrence for follow up of 2 years duration.
