An adhesion is a band of scar tissue that joins two surfaces of the body that are usually separate. The formation of scar tissue is the body's repair mechanism in response to tissue disturbance caused by surgery, infection, injury (trauma) or radiation.
Bowel adhesions are irregular bands of scar tissue that form between bowel loops, which are normally not bound together. The bands of tissue can develop when the body is healing from any disturbance of the tissue that occurs secondary to surgery, infection, trauma, or radiation.
Postsurgical adhesions occur among the traumatic serosal surfaces induced by the trauma during surgery. Wound healing process starts when the inflammation following tissue injury occurs [3.
