Peritoneal adhesion (PA) is still an actual surgical issue. It is known that any surgical intervention causes abdominal adhesion that, in its turn, induces a number of complications such as adhesive intestinal obstruction. There is registered a high lethality among patients with the developed acute adhesive intestinal obstruction. Adhesive intestinal obstruction hurts health of patients, leading to eight (on average) days of hospitalization and intrahospital lethality of 3 % per episode. The cause of the development of a significant number of lethal cases is imperfection of preventive, diagnostic, therapeutic measures; 20 to 30 % of patients with adhesive intestinal obstruction need surgical treatment. Heavy expenses in the system of healthcare are required for treatment of peritoneal adhesions. The review presents the data regarding modern state of the problem, advanced tendencies in diagnosis, prevention and treatment of patients with peritoneal adhesions, their use in practical studies.

Perineal hernia with bowel gangrene is uncommon but known complication of laparoscopic extralevator abdominoperineal excision (ELAPE). We present a rare case of closed loop small bowel obstruction with bowel gangrene secondary to an incarcerated perineal hernia that developed 7 years after an ELAPE. Intraoperatively, we found a definitive transition point due to adhesions in pelvis and a closed loop obstruction of the distal small bowel at different site with gangrenous intestine. She was managed successfully surgically with adhesiolysis and fixation of defect with biological mesh. Prevalence of perineal hernias will rise in future because of the increasing cases of ELAPE, in which no repair of pelvic floor is performed. The need of follow-up of these operations and more reporting of such cases are important in increasing awareness of these complications. Patients should be made aware of such complications and should seek urgent medical care.

Cases of neonatal gastrointestinal system (GIS) obstruction are quite complex for pediatric surgery clinics. A rare cause of intestinal obstruction is the duplication cyst (DC). A three-day-old male patient presented at our clinic with a history of abdominal distension and bilious vomiting on the second day following birth. Although pathology had not yet been determined from observation and examination, surgery was performed when the patient could not tolerate oral feeding. An ileal DC forming an incomplete obstruction was observed. Ileoileal anastomosis was performed on the patient. Because DCs can present with different clinical symptoms, it is quite difficult to diagnose them in neonate patients. Lacking an imaging method that can provide an exact diagnosis, the diagnostic laparotomy is a suitable approach for both diagnosis and treatment to avoid delays in treatment.

Incomplete intestinal obstruction due to windsock web of the jejunum is uncommonly notice in neonates. We present a male neonate, prenatally suspected case of proximal bowel obstruction, who was found to have features of incomplete intestinal obstruction due to windsock deformity in jejunum. The difficulty in the diagnosis and management is discussed along with relevant literature review.
