Adhesions
Adhesions are bands of scar tissue found internally that can form after surgery as the body tries to heal. Adhesions can have an effect on the normal successful procedures, making the patient feel pain, nerve stress, impaired motion, and reduced quality of life.
Adhesion formation following surgery can disrupt the normal gliding motion of tendons and nerves, causing pain and majorly restricting motion. Post-surgical adhesions in the hand can produce tension which, if severe and long-lasting, can lead to further nerve damage.
Diagnosis of adhesions
It is quite difficult to accurately identify persistent adhesion pain. Adhesions cannot be diagnosed by blood tests, x-ray techniques, CT scans, MRIs, or ultrasound. Â An x-ray that examines the interior of the uterus and fallopian tubes) may aid in the diagnosis of adhesions in the uterus or fallopian tubes.
Treatment of adhesions
Adhesions can be treated either with open or laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery, known as adhesiolysis. Scalpel is used to cut the adhesion scars, other times electric current is also used.
Non-surgical adhesion therapies
Surgical alternatives include:
- Medication is frequently used as the first line of treatment for acute pain and is also used in the treatment of chronic pain.
- exercise
- physiotherapy
- alterations in lifestyle
- mobilisation of soft tissues (Wasserman et al 2019)
Dynavisc – Adhesion barrier gel
DYNAVISC is a transparent, absorbable gel that is used to cover medically damaged tissues during tendon and/or peripheral nerve operations such as those performed on the foot, knee, shoulder, and hand. DYNAVISC works as a temporary, protective barrier to separate tissues and prevents fibrosis and post-surgical adhesion development.
The smooth and colorless nature of DYNAVISC allows for a good view of tendon and nerve structures during implantation. DYNAVISC gel’s flowable, tissue adherent characteristics enable complete tissue covering. DYNAVISC is backed by FzioMed’s biomaterial gel technology’s proven safety record.
Morulaa Healthtech Pvt Ltd. is the licensed importer of DYNAVISCÂ .

A Better Biomaterial for Tendon & Peripheral Nerve Surgery
Mechanically, an efficient adhesion barrier gel inhibits the development of fibrin scaffolding between healing tissues, which can lead to adhesion formation. The rheological characteristics of viscosity, elasticity, and pseudoelasticity influence a gel’s capacity to coat and separate tissues. Furthermore, the gel must be well accepted and not obstruct natural healing.
DYNAVISC is smooth and colorless, allowing a clear view of tendon and neural structures during placement. The flowable, tissue adherent properties of DYNAVISC gel allow thorough tissue coverage. DYNAVISC is backed by the exceptional safety history of FzioMed’s biomaterial gel technology.
Indication
DYNAVISC is intended to reduce fibrosis and formation of adhesions following tendon and/or peripheral nerve surgery.
