Table-III.
Comparison of intraperitoneal adhesion groups with the scar appearance and SG status.
| Characteristics | IPA Present (n=70) | IPA Absent (n=75) | p-value |
|---|---|---|---|
| SG Present+Flat | 35 (50%) | 39 (52%) | 0.81 |
| SG Absent+Flat | 20 (28.5%) | 18 (24%) | 0.53 |
| SG Present+Depressed | 4 (5.7%) | 5 (6.6%) | 1 |
| SG Absent+Depressed | 2 (2.8%) | 3 (4%) | 1 |
| SG Present+Elevated | 4 (5.7%) | 6 (8%) | 0.74 |
| SG Absent+Elevated | 5 (7.1%) | 4 (5.3%) | 0.84 |
IPA: Intra peritoneal adhesion, SG: Striae gravidarum. Data are expressed as number of cases.
p-values were calculated using Pearson Chi Square or Fisher’s exact test as appropriate.
