PURPOSE: In the laminectomy model in rats, to verify anti-adhesive effectiveness of the new material, a mixture composed of poloxamer 407, calcium chloride, and xanthorrhizol, we compared it with that of commercially used solution form anti-adhesive agent GUARDIX-SL, Biorane. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 108 Sprague-Dawley rats (SD rats) were divided equally into three groups: negative control group (NCG), positive control group (PCG), and experimental group (EG). After exposing the dura on L4 level, we closed the wound shortly after hemostasis, after administering the anti-adhesive agent. To evaluate effectiveness, 18 SD rats from each group were killed after 1 week of rearing. Nine were examined by grading of gross adhesion and the other nine, by grading of histological adhesion. The degree of adhesion in the remainder of 18 SD rats in each group was examined with the same method after four weeks of rearing. RESULTS: Comparing the degree of adhesion after growth for 1 week, the gross and histological adhesion of the EG was lower than that of the NCG. There was no statistical significance in the gross score (P = 0.63), but there was statistical significance in the histological score (P = 0.04). The EG showed similar or improved degrees of adhesion in comparison with the PCG. In comparison after growth for 4 weeks, although gross adhesion of the EG was not significantly lower than the NCG, histological adhesion was remarkably low in the EG (P = 0.01). The EG showed similar or improved degrees of gross and histological adhesion in comparison to that of the PCG. (P = 0.20, 0.07). CONCLUSION: The new anti-adhesive material showed similar or improved effectiveness with the existing agents for commercial use. This result suggests that the new anti-adhesive material will be a successful candidate as a future product for clinical use.
