The study reviews recent developments with regard to postsurgical adhesion formation, the role of some cytokines and possible prevention. Interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta) levels in peritoneal fluid were assayed during 24 and 48 hours after laparoscopic or laparotomic surgery and the influence of diclofenac was evaluated. IL-1 beta levels in peritoneal fluid were substantially lower after laparoscopic adnexal surgery than after laparotomy. Application of diclofenac after abdominal hysterectomies reduced substantially intraperitoneal IL-1 beta levels.
