Medical - Medical (general) / General surgery
German term or phrase: Längstrecken ädhäsiolyse
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.

extensive adhesiolysis
Explanation:
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.
