The intestines are part of the digestive system. Abdominal adhesions can cause an intestinal obstruction. Although most adhesions cause no symptoms or problems, others cause chronic abdominal or pelvic pain. Adhesions are also a major cause of intestinal obstruction and female infertility.
For example, myomectomy (surgery to remove fibroids), tubal surgery (to remove an ectopic pregnancy), surgery on the ovary (to remove cysts) and surgery for endometriosis can cause adhesions. Even surgery to remove adhesions can lead to new adhesions.
