Laparoscopic Adhesiolysis in Dubai
Adhesiolysis Dubai - Laparoscopic Overview
Adhesions can feel like an invisible barrier to comfort and well-being, silently disrupting lives with chronic pain, mobility issues, or even digestive discomfort. These internal bands of scar tissue can form after surgeries, infections, or inflammation, binding tissues and organs that should move freely.
Dr Ibrahim Abd Elrahman, a renowned expert in minimally invasive surgery, offers hope to those affected by adhesions. With his specialised techniques, he can carefully release these restrictive bonds, restoring the body’s natural balance and alleviating the associated symptoms. Through his compassionate care and advanced laparoscopic adhesiolysis surgical expertise, Dr Ibrahim empowers patients to reclaim their health and well-being.
What are Adhesions?
Adhesions are bands of scar tissue that develop within the body. Approximately 90% of abdominal adhesions result from prior surgeries, though they can also arise due to trauma, infections, or inflammatory conditions.
In some cases, adhesions may form on organs, causing them to stick together. While many individuals with adhesions remain symptom-free, others may experience discomfort or digestive issues.
Conventional imaging tests often cannot detect adhesions, which are typically discovered during diagnostic surgery to evaluate symptoms or address another condition.
Causes of Adhesions
Adhesions can develop due to several factors:
- Surgery: Most commonly after abdominal procedures, particularly intestinal surgeries, as scar tissue forms naturally.
- Inflammation: Conditions like appendicitis or peritonitis may trigger adhesions.
- Infection: Abdominal or pelvic infections, such as PID caused by STIs like chlamydia and gonorrhea, can lead to adhesions.
- Injury: Trauma to the abdomen can result in adhesion formation.
- Radiation Therapy: Radiation treatment may also contribute to their development.
Symptoms of Adhesions
Symptoms of adhesions differ based on their location in the body:
Abdominal Adhesions:
- Severe abdominal pain or cramping
- Bloating or swelling
- Constipation
- Nausea and vomiting
- Difficulty passing gas
- Loud bowel sounds
- Partial or complete intestinal obstruction
Pelvic Adhesions:
- Infertility
- Pain during intercourse (dyspareunia)
- Chronic pelvic pain
Adhesions Treatment
Laparoscopic Adhesiolysis Surgery
If adhesions are identified during an imaging diagnostic procedure, our ObGyn surgeon may perform laparoscopic adhesiolysis to remove them.
Adhesiolysis, or the surgical removal of adhesions, involves breaking down scar tissue to restore the normal function of abdominal and pelvic organs. In women, this procedure is particularly beneficial for enhancing reproductive health, often improving fertility and increasing the chances of conception.
The Procedure
During laparoscopic adhesiolysis, the abdomen is inflated with gas to create space for better visibility. Surgeons insert laparoscopic instruments, including a camera, through small incisions (ports) to view the organs and adhesions. Using specialized scissors, the adhesions are carefully cut while ensuring no damage is done to surrounding pelvic organs.
Advantages of the Laparoscopic Approach
Compared to traditional methods, the laparoscopic approach offers several benefits:
- Safe and effective treatment option.
- Reduced postoperative pain and bleeding.
- Minimal trauma to abdominal and pelvic structures.
- Enhanced visualization with better magnification for precision.
- Shorter hospital stays and quicker recovery times.
- Lower risk of adhesion recurrence.
- Reduced likelihood of hernias at the incision site.
Non-Surgical Approaches
For mild cases, non-surgical treatments focus on managing symptoms and preventing further complications.
These may include:
- Pain Management: Over-the-counter or prescription medications can help alleviate discomfort caused by adhesions.
- Physical Therapy: Specialized exercises or techniques may improve mobility and reduce pain in cases of adhesions affecting joints or ligaments.
- Dietary Adjustments: For abdominal adhesions, a fiber-rich diet, and smaller, frequent meals may ease symptoms like bloating and constipation.
- Watchful Waiting: For asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic cases, careful monitoring may be recommended to avoid unnecessary surgical risks.
