Pediatric Adhesive Intestinal Obstruction

Adhesive intestinal obstruction is a widespread intestinal adhesion formed after abdominal surgery, inflammation, and trauma. The intestinal obstruction caused by adhesions is the most common type of intestinal obstruction. Most patients have a history of abdominal surgery, inflammation, trauma, or tuberculosis, and they have had an overeating or strenuous exercise before the onset; they used to have abdominal pain or a history of intestinal adhesions. A small number of congenital cords are more common in children.
