Backgrounds: Development of peritoneal adhesions has been studied extensively, but to date, no definitive strategy has been implemented to prevent their formation. In the present study, garlic oil has been investigated as a possible option.
Aim: To prevent post-operative intra-abdominal adhesion in both diabetic and non-diabetic rats by using garlic oil.
Methodology: An experimental study including sixty adult male albino rats weighing 200-250 gm. were divided to six equal groups. Diabetes was induced in rats of three groups using a single dose of 120 mg alloxan/kg/BW. All rats underwent laparotomy at which cecal wall abrasion and abdominal wall injuries were induced. Group A (negative control) underwent no procedures; Groups B (positive control) underwent diabetic induction. Group C underwent cecal abrasion procedure .. View More»
