Long-term analysis of peritoneal plasminogen activator activity and adhesion formation after surgical trauma in the rat model

Recent literature has shown that a common pathway in postsurgical adhesion formation is a transient reduction in local plasminogen activator activity, shortly after peritoneal trauma. This deficit in fibrinolysis permits deposited fibrin to become organized into fibrous, permanent adhesions. Althoug...
