Comparison of intraperitoneal anti-adhesive polysaccharides derived from Phellinus mushrooms in a rat peritonitis model

Figure 2 The site of the intraperitoneal adhesions (in all rats). After the sacrifice, sites of adhesions were observed in the midline, adnexa/epididymal fat bodies, the upper abdomen (liver), the parietal peritoneum, the omentum, and between the bowel loops. Most of the adhesions were found between the bowel loops, adnexa/epididymal fat bodies, and the omentum compared with other sites (^aP<0.05).
