German term

Längstrecken ädhäsiolyse

German to English Medical Medical (general) General surgery
In a surgery report:

Zustand nach Längstrecken ädhäsiolyse und Darmresektion mit Peritonitis vor 48 Stunden.

Now, as far as I know, there is no such longutitunal type of adhesiolysis. Would it be wrongful to make such a literary translation? Strangely, I have never come across the expression "Längstrecken ädhäsiolyse" in German texts, either.

Wrong spelling This should read "Langstreckenadhäsiolyse".

Selected

extensive adhesiolysis

What is most likely meant here in German is: Adhäsiolyse über eine lange Strecke.

The patient has developed adhesions and much scarring (peritonitis) and thus extensive adhesiolysis as well as bowel resection are required.
Note from asker:
This one looks more likely. I used it in my translation. Danke schön!

I also found a few hits for “long-term adhesiolysis"
