liver adhesions removal- successful effects lst how long?

[frank kelly]

Experienced symptoms of cirrhosis, night sweats, weakness,sore throat, insomnia.
bile accummulation and resulting haematoma-abdomimal wall withno sign of reduction after one month.  How long does it normally take to dissolve?

Underwent laproscopy and liver biopsy. Biopsy results show no active liver cell necrosis is seen-no alcoholic hepatitis present.
Adhesions of liver to old gall bladder scarring were addressed
and cirrhosis symptoms appear to be reversing.  
Could the adhesions be the cause of cirrhosis symptoms?
Could the reversing process of symptoms be permanent?
If symptoms reappear is additional adhesion surgery possible?

[Kevin Pho, MD]

Can't say without evaluation.  There can be causes other than cirrhosis that can lead to the symptoms you describe.  

An ultrasound and MRCP can further image the gallbladder as well as biliary ducts.  It may be possible for the adhesions to lead to the symptoms - however, I am not  a surgeon, so my insight is limited.  

If the ultrasound and MRCP remain negative, you can consider a surgical referral to exclude the possibility of adhesions.

These options can be discussed with your personal physician.

Followup with your personal physician is essential.
