BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence of @entity4036 ( @entity4036 ) in @entity1 operated on for @entity1028 ( @entity1028 ) compared with @entity1 treated for @entity432 . The efficacy of MRI in early diagnosis of @entity4036 also was studied. STUDY DESIGN: One hundred fourteen @entity1 operated for either @entity1028 (51 @entity1 , group A) or @entity432 (63 @entity1 , group B) constitute the study. The presence of @entity4036 onset was evaluated by clinical observation followed by ultrasonography. Data acquired by ultrasonography were compared with those obtained by MRI to determine the efficacy of this diagnostic tool in all 114 @entity1 . The prevalence of @entity169 in both groups also was determined. RESULTS: A significant difference was found in the incidence of @entity4036 . @entity4036 developed in 31.7% (16 of 51) of group A @entity1 and 17.4% (11 of 63) of group B @entity1 (p < 0.03). A significant prevalence ofinguinal hernias was detected in group A (p < 0.01). The @entity797 hazard regression analysis revealed as independent predictors of postoperative @entity4036 only the presence of @entity1028 and a history of laparotomy. CONCLUSIONS: Ours and other studies recall collagen synthesis disorders to explain the statistical association observed among @entity1028 , @entity169 , and @entity4036 . MRI, especially in @entity1 at risk, appears to be an effective diagnostic approach to early detection of @entity4036 .
