  • Title: Reduction of postoperative adhesions secondary to strabismus surgery in rabbits.
    Author: Yaacobi Y, Hamed LM, Kaul KS, Fanous MM.
    Journal: Ophthalmic Surg; 1992 Feb; 23(2):123-8. PubMed ID: 1549289.
    Abstract:
    The efficacy of tissue coating with sodium hyaluronate solution or oxidized regenerated cellulose (Interceed) sleeves in reducing the occurrence and severity of postoperative adhesions following strabismus surgery was tested in rabbits in vivo and compared with the efficacy in this regard of treatment with balanced salt solution. The use of Interceed sleeves significantly increased formation of postoperative adhesions, but coating with sodium hyaluronate solution prior to and during surgery significantly reduced such formation.
