Abstract

We prepared an anti-adhesion membrane made of sodium hyaluronate/sodium carboxymethylcellulose (HA/CMC) and evaluated its effectiveness for adhesion prevention in a rat model. The anti-adhesion membrane was prepared by lyophilizing HA/CMC solution and cross-linking properly with 1-Ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide (EDAC). In a cecum/abdominal wall abrasion model of Sprague-Dawley rat, cecal serosa and abdominal wall were abraded in $1\times2\;(cm^2)$ with a bone burr after peritoneal midline incision and sutured at 3 points around the injured surface. The denuded cecum was covered with HA/CMC membrane (experimental group), or nothing (control group) and apposed to the abdominal wall. Most of the control group represented 3 or more of adhesion grade at POD 7, 14, 21, and 28, whereas $60\~70\%$ of the experimental group was 2 or less of adhesion grade at 14, 21, and 28. It was similar in the adhesion strength. In a general manner, the adhesion grade and strength showed gradual increasing until POD 14, almost same or a little increasing POD 21, but decreasing POD 28. Also the control group was much higher in adhesion grade, strength, and area than the experimental group. It is expected that the anti-adhesion membrane will have a good clinical result in postoperative adhesion prevention.

본 연구에서는 히알루론산나트륨/카르복시메틸셀룰로오스나트륨(HA/CMC)으로 구성된 유착방지 막을 제조하였고, 쥐에서 유착방지용에 대한 효과를 평가하였다. 유착방지 막은 HA/CMC 용액을 동결건조한 후 1-에틸-3-(3-디메틸아미노프로필)카보디이미드 (EDAC)로 가교하여 제조하였다. Sprague-Dawley쥐의 맹장/복벽 찰과상 모델에서 복부 중앙선 절개 후 장막과 복벽을 bone burr로 $1\times2\;(cm^2)$ 크기로 찰과상을 만들고, 상처 면 주위의 3곳을 봉합사로 고정시켰다. 상처난 장을 실험군의 경우 HA/CMC 막으로 덮어주었으며, 대조군은 아무처치도 하지 않은 상태로 복벽을 마주보게 하였다. 대조군의 대부분은 수술 후 7, 14, 21, 28일에 유착정도 3 이상을 나타내었고, 반면 실험군의 $60\~70\%$는 수술 후 14, 21, 28일에 유착정도 2 이하를 나타내었다. 이는 유착세기에서도 유사하였다. 일반적으로 유착정도와 유착세기는 수술 후 14일까지 점차 증가하였고, 수술 후 21일에는 거의 동일하거나 약간 증가하였으며, 28일째에는 감소하였다. 대조군은 유착정도와 유착세기, 유착면적에서 높은 수치를 나타내었다. 이 유착방지막은 수술 후 유착방지에서 좋은 임상결과를 나타낼 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
