Questions about previous surgeries & possible scarring

I have had 3 C-sections and a laparoscapy that turned into a laparotomy for endometrosis and an ovarian cyst. I am going to have a SAH on 1/4/10. When talking about possible scarring problems from other surgeries, does this mean it is possible I have scarring from those surgeries??

Also does the scarring show up on a sonogram?

Any surgery can allow for scar issues or adhesions. Additionally, endometriosis sets up an environment for adhesions because of the bleeding and inflammation.

I am guessing you have quite a bit of possible scar tissue and adhesions based on your history and diagnosis. And no, adhesions and scar tissue typically does not show up on any type of test!

We do have information in our Resource Database about adhesions if you are interested!

WEISER,

Thank you for all the information. I will check out the resources tab to find out more about adhesions and scars.
