What are the complications of intestinal adhesions?

There are many complications associated with intestinal adhesions, among which intestinal obstruction and bowel necrosis are relatively common. If intestinal adhesions are severe, feces may not pass through the intestines and be expelled in time, leading to mechanical intestinal obstruction, which can cause symptoms such as paroxysmal abdominal colic and constipation. Moreover, severe intestinal adhesions often result in significant damage to the intestinal wall and may even lead to ischemic necrosis of the bowel.
