Up to 90% of patients who undergo open abdominal or pelvic surgery develop postoperative adhesions, or scar tissue. Minimally invasive laparoscopic surgical approaches can reduce the severity of the adhesions, but the scar tissue still forms. The cellular response to injury -; even intentional injury, such as surgery to repair a problem -; results in a cascade of molecules pouring to the site to heal the tissue.
