Synechia

Synechia (from the Greek synecheia - continuity, connectedness) are adhesions between opposing surfaces of an organ or tissue.

Synechia most often occurs as a result of inflammatory processes when opposing surfaces are glued together by fibrous tissue. The most common example of synechiae are adhesions between the walls of the uterine vagina after inflammatory diseases. Synechiae can also form in the pleural cavity, abdominal cavity, eyelids, eyes and other organs.

The formation of synechiae leads to disruption of the normal functioning of the organ. Treatment consists of surgical separation of the adhesions. To prevent relapse, anti-adhesion barriers are used.

Synechiae (ancient Greek σύνεχος continuous, connected) are fusions (synechiae) of the foreskin (prepuce) and the inner layer of the foreskin with the head of the penis in boys and men. It is characterized by the convergence (fusion) of the inner layer of the prepuce (foreskin) with the head of the penis. In a healthy baby, opening of the head is possible only after gradual divergence of the synechiae. If the head does not open, this indicates the presence of synechiae in the child. If the symptom persists into adolescence or in adult men, it is necessary to consult a doctor - diagnosis and elimination of the problem is necessary
