Noxytiolin and peritoneal adhesion formation

Abstract: Clinical and experimental studies have suggested that intraperitoneal noxytiolin prevents adhesion formation. A reliable experimental animal model was therefore established and the effect of noxytiolin on adhesion formation was evaluated in a controlled trial using 80 rats. All 40 rats given Ringer solution developed adhesions, whereas in 7 out of 40 given noxytiolin no adhesions were found (P less than 0-02). Noxytiolin reduced both the total and the mean number of adhesions formed (P less than 0-2) and their… Show more

“…The animal model used in the present study was originally described by Gilmore and Reid [7], and allows a quantitative assessment of adhesions. We modified the model by enlarging the sutured peritoneal defect from 1.4 to 3.0 cm, and our version induced adhesions in all animals and offered a better possibility of measuring the length of attachment of adhesions.…”

“…The created defect was closed with 6 (5 mm apart) atraumatic 3/0 single silk sutures. This procedure is essentially as described by Gilmore and Reid [11] and later modified by others [15]. After closure of the abdominal incision in two layers the rats were randomly allocated to either treatment with 10ml SAG (50mg) i.p.…”

“…Testing of this hypothesis was the second aim of this study. A reliable rat model, initially described by Gilmore and Reid [11] and modified by Lindenberg et al [15] was used, allowing a quantitative assessment of the anti-adhesive effect of SAG.…”
