Dr. Hilgers a paper published an important paper in the Journal of Gynecologic Surgery entitled “Near Adhesion-Free Pelvic Surgery: Three Distinct Phases Over 23 Years.” The article presents a surgical technique that “allows patients with the most extensive form of pelvic adhesions to undergo reconstructive pelvic surgery with a near-adhesion-free postoperative outcome. The study shows that, “with the use of a comprehensive, well-defined set of surgical anti-adhesion techniques, it is possible to perform adhesion-free or near adhesion-free reconstructive pelvic surgery.” (Taken from Abstract, J GYNECOL SURG 26:31, 2010).
