Abstract
Purpose: The aim of this study was to present a sonographic sign and strengthen the clinical sign for the diagnosis of specific, dense, intraperitoneal adhesions, following an earlier cesarean section. Results: Abdominopelvic sonography showed altered sonographic findings when described adhesions were present, and this sonographic sign (altered findings) endorsed the diagnosis of specific adhesions from a clinical sign. Conclusions: This paper describes, for the first time, the sonographic findings that can corroborate a clinical diagnosis of dense, intraperitoneal adhesions following a cesarean section.
