A Model for Adhesion Formation by Thermal Injury in the Abdominal Cavity of the Mouse

Abstract: An experimental model for inducing peritoneal adhesions in mice is described. Measurable thermal trauma can be inflicted by the application of a heated metal object, for a given lapse of time, to the surface of a section of mouse intestine. Parameters of temperature, area and application time were so manipulated as to obtain adhesions in only 70–75% of treated mice. It is maintained that this model can enable better evaluation of various prophylactic means and also the detection of exacerbating agents.
