Abstract	The abdominal cavity represents one of the most active areas of surgical activity. Surgical procedures involving the gastrointestinal (GI) tract are among the most common procedures performed today. Healing of the GI tract after removal of a segment of bowel and healing of the peritoneal surfaces with subsequent adhesion formation remain vexing clinical problems. Interventions to modify both the responses are myriad, yet a full understanding of the pathophysiology of these responses remains elusive. Different aspects of GI and peritoneal healing, with associated factors, are discussed in this article.
