>>Dr Marchbein, Do you have any stats on frequency of adhesion development after c/s? Your personal experience would suffice.

I don't have any general stats and I never counted my own but I would have to say (just a guess, mind you) minimal adhesions (nearly unnoticable) in about 5-8% and severe (dense) adhesions in about 1-2%. Interestingly enough, even the patinets with severe adhesions have no symptoms from them. Don't know why.
