Abstract
Adhesion formation after laparoscopic surgery was evaluated in mice of different strains. More adhesions were observed in Swiss, NMRI, and BALB/c mice, with less interanimal variability in BALB/c mice. These data point to genetics effects on adhesion formation, which open new insights in its pathogenesis and indicate the importance of a careful strain selection for animal studies.
