    Abstract:
    Standardised lesions were placed on both uterine horns and on the abdominal wall of seventy-five female rabbits. The animals were divided into five groups consisting of 15 animals each. Before closure of the peritoneum the following drugs were applied in the peritoneal cavity: Group I received NaCl (control), Group II received 10 ml poly-(1-vinyl-1-pyrrolidone)-iodine complex (Betaisodona), Group III received 100 000 I. U. streptokinase and 25 000 I. U. streptodornase (Varidase), Group IV received 100 000 KIE approtinine (AntagosanA) and Group V received triamcinolone acetonide (Volon A-Haftsalbe). Two weeks after surgery the animals were relaparotomised and the situs was inspected. Quality and extent of the adhesions were assessed and documented. The results obtained in group II did not differ from controls, while the remaining groups showed significantly fewer adhesions. The best results were obtained in animals receiving Volon A-Haftsalbe (Group V) where 86% fewer adhesions were observed.
