An adhesion is a fibrous scar band that binds two surfaces together. They are commonly caused by previous abdominal surgery. Serosal injuries can be caused by abrasions, tissue handling, blood, debris, lint, or any foreign material that can cause the tissues to bind together.

Answer to Question 2

A keloid is an overgrowth of firm, rounded scar that extends beyond the border of the wound and can be painful and may bleed if injured.
