[PMID: 36983722 PMCID: PMC10058414 DOI: 10.3390/jpm13030541] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/25/2023] [Revised: 03/13/2023] [Accepted: 03/14/2023] [Indexed: 03/22/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: It is well demonstrated that intraoperative blood pressure is associated with postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI); however, the association between severity and duration of abnormal intraoperative blood pressure (BP) with AKI in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery remains unknown. Methods: This retrospective cohort study included 12,414 patients aged ≥ 18 years who underwent a single elective laparoscopic abdominal surgery during hospitalization between October 2011 and April 2017. Multivariate stepwise logistic regressions were applied to determine the correlation between the severity and duration of intraoperative mean arterial pressure (MAP, (systolic BP + 2 × diastolic BP)/3), acute intraoperative hypertension (IOTH) and postoperative AKI, in different periods of surgery. Results: A total of 482 hospitalized patients (3.9%) developed surgery-related AKI. Compared with those without IOTH or with preoperative mean MAP (80–85 mmHg), acute elevated IOTH (odds ratio, OR, 1.4, 95% CI, 1.1 to 1.7), mean MAP 95–100 mmHg (OR, 1.8; 95% CI, 1.3 to 2.7), MAP 100–105 mmHg (OR, 2.4; 95% CI, 1.6 to 3.8), and more than 105 mmHg (OR, 1.9; 95% CI, 1.1 to 3.3) were independent of other risk factors in a diverse cohort undergoing laparoscopic surgery. In addition, the risk of postoperative AKI appeared to result from long exposure (≥20 min) to IOTH (OR, 1.9; 95% CI, 1.5 to 2.5) and MAP ≥ 115 mmHg (OR, 2.2; 95% CI, 1.6 to 3.0). Intraoperative hypotension was not found to be associated with AKI in laparoscopic surgery patients. Conclusions: Postoperative AKI correlates positively with intraoperative hypertension in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery. These findings provide an intraoperative evaluation criterion to predict the occurrence of postoperative AKI.

Abstract
An increased intraabdominal pressure, particularly when occurring during periods of hemodynamic instability or fluid overload, is regarded as a major contributor to acute kidney injury (AKI) in intensive care units. During abdominal laparoscopic procedures, intraoperative insufflation pressures up to 15 mmHg are applied, to enable visualization and surgical manipulation but with the potential to compromise net renal perfusion. Despite the widely acknowledged renal arterial autoregulation, net arterial perfusion pressure is known to be narrow, and the effective renal medullary perfusion is disproportionately impacted by venous and lymphatic congestion. At present, the potential risk factors, mitigators and risk-stratification of AKI during surgical pneumoperitoneum formation received relatively limited attention among nephrologists and represent an opportunity to look beyond mere blood pressure and intake-output balances. Careful charting and reporting duration and extent of surgical pneumoperitoneum represents an opportunity for anesthesia teams to better communicate intraoperative factors affecting renal outcomes for the postoperative clinical teams. In this current article, the authors are integrating preclinical data and clinical experience to provide a better understanding to optimize renal perfusion during surgeries. Future studies should carefully consider intrabdominal insufflation pressure as a key variable when assessing outcomes and blood pressure goals in these settings.

Mediators of Regional Kidney Perfusion during Surgical Pneumo-Peritoneum Creation and the Risk of Acute Kidney Injury—A Review of Basic Physiology. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11102728. [PMID: 35628855 PMCID: PMC9142947 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11102728] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/09/2022] [Revised: 05/05/2022] [Accepted: 05/05/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI), especially if recurring, represents a risk factor for future chronic kidney disease. In intensive care units, increased intra-abdominal pressure is well-recognized as a significant contributor to AKI. However, the importance of transiently increased intra-abdominal pressures procedures is less commonly appreciated during laparoscopic surgery, the use of which has rapidly increased over the last few decades. Unlike the well-known autoregulation of the renal cortical circulation, medulla perfusion is modulated via partially independent regulatory mechanisms and strongly impacted by changes in venous and lymphatic pressures. In our review paper, we will provide a comprehensive overview of this evolving topic, covering a broad range from basic pathophysiology up to and including current clinical relevance and examples. Key regulators of oxidative stress such as ischemia-reperfusion injury, the activation of inflammatory response and humoral changes interacting with procedural pneumo-peritoneum formation and AKI risk will be recounted. Moreover, we present an in-depth review of the interaction of pneumo-peritoneum formation with general anesthetic agents and animal models of congestive heart failure. A better understanding of the relationship between pneumo-peritoneum formation and renal perfusion will support basic and clinical research, leading to improved clinical care and collaboration among specialists.

Abstract
Background A laparoscopic approach is widely used in abdominal surgery. Although several studies have compared surgical and oncological outcomes between laparoscopic surgery (LS) and open surgery (OS) in rectal cancer patients, there have been few studies on postoperative renal outcomes. Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study involving 1,633 patients who underwent rectal cancer surgery between 2003 and 2017. Postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) was diagnosed according to the serum creatinine criteria of the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes classification. Results Among the 1,633 patients, 1,072 (65.6%) underwent LS. After matching propensity scores, 395 patients were included in each group. The incidence of postoperative AKI in the LS group was significantly lower than in the OS group (9.9% vs. 15.9%; p = 0.01). Operation time, estimated blood loss, and incidence of transfusion in the LS group were significantly lower than those in the OS group. Cox proportional hazard models revealed that LS was associated with decreased risk of postoperative AKI (hazard ratio [HR], 0.599; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.402–0.893; p = 0.01) and postoperative transfusion was associated with increased risk of AKI (HR, 2.495; 95% CI, 1.529–4.072; p < 0.001). In the subgroup analysis, the incidence of postoperative AKI in patients with middle or high rectal cancer who underwent LS was much lower than in those who underwent OS (HR, 0.373; 95% CI, 0.197–0.705; p = 0.002). Conclusion This study showed that LS may have a favorable effect on the development of postoperative AKI in patients with rectal cancer.

Abstract
Objective: To review the effects of carbon dioxide pneumoperitoneum during laparoscopy, evaluate alternative techniques to establishing a working space and compare this to current recommendations in veterinary surgery. Study Design: Literature review. Sample Population: 92 peer-reviewed articles. Methods: An electronic database search identified human and veterinary literature on the effects of pneumoperitoneum (carbon dioxide insufflation for laparoscopy) and alternatives with a focus on adaptation to the veterinary field. Results: Laparoscopy is the preferred surgical approach for many human and several veterinary procedures due to the lower morbidity associated with minimally invasive surgery, compared to laparotomy. The establishment of a pneumoperitoneum with a gas most commonly facilitates a working space. Carbon dioxide is the preferred gas for insufflation as it is inert, inexpensive, noncombustible, colorless, excreted by the lungs and highly soluble in water. Detrimental side effects such as acidosis, hypercapnia, reduction in cardiac output, decreased pulmonary compliance, hypothermia and post-operative pain have been associated with a pneumoperitoneum established with CO2 insufflation. As such alternatives have been suggested such as helium, nitrous oxide, warmed and humidified carbon dioxide and gasless laparoscopy. None of these alternatives have found a consistent benefit over standard carbon dioxide insufflation. Conclusions: The physiologic alterations seen with CO2 insufflation at the current recommended intra-abdominal pressures are mild and of transient duration. Clinical Significance: The current recommendations in veterinary laparoscopy for a pneumoperitoneum using carbon dioxide appear to be safe and effective.

Abstract
Background Laparoscopic abdominal surgery has been widely used to reduce the length of hospital stay and complications from open abdominal surgery. During the operation, the creation of pneumoperitoneum is used for better visualization of the operating field. However, the effect of pneumoperitoneum on kidney function is unknown. We aimed to identify risk factors and predictors associated with AKI development following laparoscopic abdominal surgery. Methods A single-center prospective cohort study of laparoscopic abdominal surgery patients between June 2012 and December 2013. Acute kidney injury (AKI) was identified by Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcome (KDIGO) criteria. Urinary neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin (uNGAL) was measured on the first 3 days after surgery as a surrogate marker of AKI. Results Of the 64 patients, 23 (35%) developed postoperative AKI. The mean age, initial blood pressure, and initial glomerular filtration rate were not different between AKI and non-AKI groups. Inflation time and exposure index were significantly higher in the AKI group compared to non-AKI group (192.0 vs 151.1 min, p = 0.045, and 2325.9 vs 1866.1 mmHg-minutes, p = 0.035). Operation time, mean intra-abdominal pressure, duration of intraoperative hypotension, amount of blood loss and intravenous fluid were not different between groups. In multivariable analysis adjusted for age, diabetes, baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate, and type of operation (urological surgery), exposure index was significantly associated with postoperative AKI, with odds ratio (95% CI) 1.47 (1.05–2.04), p = 0.024. By combining the intraoperative parameters with clinical model the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.71 (95% CI 0.58–0.84). Conclusions AKI was a common condition in laparoscopic abdominal surgery. Exposure index has been proposed as a novel predictor of laparoscopic abdominal surgery associated AKI.

Abstract
Both preclinical and clinical studies indicate that raised intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) associated with pneumoperitoneum during laparoscopic surgical procedures can cause renal damage, the severity of which may be influenced by variables such as pressure level and duration. Several of these variables have been investigated in animal studies, but synthesis of all preclinical data has not been performed. This systematic review summarizes all available pre-clinical evidence on this topic, including an assessment of its quality and risk of bias. We performed meta-analysis to assess which aspects of the pneumoperitoneum determine the severity of its adverse effects. A systematic search in two databases identified 55 studies on the effect of pneumoperitoneum on renal function which met our inclusion criteria. There was high heterogeneity between the studies regarding study design, species, sex, pressure and duration of pneumoperitoneum, and type of gas used. Measures to reduce bias were poorly reported, leading to an unclear risk of bias in the majority of studies. Details on randomisation, blinding and a sample size calculation were not reported in ≥80% of the studies. Meta-analysis showed an overall increase in serum creatinine during pneumoperitoneum, and a decrease in urine output and renal blood flow. Subgroup analysis indicated that for serum creatinine, this effect differed between species. Subgroup analysis of pressure level indicated that urine output decreased as IAP level increased. No differences between types of gas were observed. Data were insufficient to reliably assess whether sex or IAP duration modulate the effect of pneumoperitoneum. Four studies assessing long-term effects indicated that serum creatinine normalized ≥24 hours after desufflation of pneumoperitoneum at 15mmHg. We conclude that harmful effects on renal function and perfusion during pneumoperitoneum appear to be robust, but evidence on long-term effects is very limited. The reliability and clinical relevance of these findings for healthy patients and patients at high risk of renal impairment remain uncertain. We emphasize the need for rigorous reporting of preclinical research methodology, which is of vital importance for clinical translation of preclinical data.

Abstract
Background Laparoscopic surgery has several advantages when compared to open surgery, including faster postoperative recovery and lower pain scores. However, for laparoscopy, a pneumoperitoneum is required to create workspace between the abdominal wall and intraabdominal organs. Increased intraabdominal pressure may also have negative implications on cardiovascular, pulmonary, and intraabdominal organ functionings. To overcome these negative consequences, several trials have been performed comparing low- versus standard-pressure pneumoperitoneum. Methods A systematic review of all randomized controlled clinical trials and observational studies comparing low- versus standard-pressure pneumoperitoneum. Results and conclusions Quality assessment showed that the overall quality of evidence was moderate to low. Postoperative pain scores were reduced by the use of low-pressure pneumoperitoneum. With appropriate perioperative measures, the use of low-pressure pneumoperitoneum does not seem to have clinical advantages as compared to standard pressure on cardiac and pulmonary function. Although there are indications that low-pressure pneumoperitoneum is associated with less liver and kidney injury when compared to standard-pressure pneumoperitoneum, this does not seem to have clinical implications for healthy individuals. The influence of low-pressure pneumoperitoneum on adhesion formation, anastomosis healing, tumor metastasis, intraocular and intracerebral pressure, and thromboembolic complications remains uncertain, as no human clinical trials have been performed. The influence of pressure on surgical conditions and safety has not been established to date. In conclusion, the most important benefit of low-pressure pneumoperitoneum is lower postoperative pain scores, supported by a moderate quality of evidence. However, the quality of surgical conditions and safety of the use of low-pressure pneumoperitoneum need to be established, as are the values and preferences of physicians and patients regarding the potential benefits and risks. Therefore, the recommendation to use low-pressure pneumoperitoneum during laparoscopy is weak, and more studies are required.

Abstract
Background Previous studies examined the effect of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) versus open cholecystectomy (OC) on physiological variables of the respiratory system. In this study we compared changes in arterial blood gases-related parameters between LC and OC to assess their comparative influence on gas exchange. Methods We studied 28 patients, operated under identical anesthetic protocol (LC: 18 patients, OC: 10 patients). Measurements were made on the morning before surgery (BS), the second (AS2) and the eighth (AS8) postoperative day. Studied parameters, including alveolar-arterial difference in PO2 ((A-a)DO2) and oxygen content (Oct in vol%), were statistically compared. Results On AS2 a greater increase was found in ((A-a)DO2) for the OC compared to LC (4.673 ± 0.966 kPa versus 3.773 ± 1.357 kPa, respectively). Between BS and AS2, Oct in vol% decreased from 17.55 ± 1.90 to 15.69 ± 1.88 in the LC and from 16.99 ± 2.37 to 14.62 ± 2.23 in the OC, whilst a reduction (P = 0.093) between AS2 and AS8 was also found for the open method. Besides, on AS2, SaO2% decrease was greater in OC compared to LC (P = 0.096). Conclusions On AS2, the greater increase in OC-((A-a)DO2) associated with Oct in vol% and SaO2% findings also in OC group suggest that LC might be associated with lower risk for impaired tissue oxygenation.

[PMID: 25960799 PMCID: PMC4414094 DOI: 10.5114/wiitm.2014.47449] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/02/2014] [Revised: 10/18/2014] [Accepted: 10/26/2014] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The surgical stress response after laparoscopy is smaller when compared with open surgery, and it is expected that after minimally invasive surgery the possible development of oxidative stress will be less severe. AIM To evaluate markers of pro-oxidant activity - levels of lipid peroxides and malondialdehyde - and activity of the antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase in the perioperative period in patients undergoing gynecological laparoscopy and to determine whether the duration of laparoscopy can affect these changes. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study included 64 patients, divided into two groups: group 1 with duration of laparoscopy up to 20 min, and group 2 with duration of the operation over 40 min. Blood samples were collected before anesthesia, 5 min after release of pneumoperitoneum, and 10 h after surgery. RESULTS A statistically significant increase in the levels of lipid peroxides and malondialdehyde in samples collected after surgery was found in comparison with values obtained before surgery. Also statistically significant differences existed between groups of patients with different duration of surgery. Superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase activity values were significantly decreased. They were also significantly different between the two groups with different duration of surgery. CONCLUSIONS In our study, levels of the markers of pro-oxidant activity increased and levels of the markers of antioxidant enzymes decreased, suggesting development of oxidative stress. The duration of laparoscopic procedures affects the severity of the presented changes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Current treatment of the abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) is based on consensus definitions but several questions regarding fluid regime or critical level of intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH)) remain unsolved. It is questionable whether these issues can be addressed in prospective randomized trials in the near future. This review aimed to summarize current animal models and to outline requirements for the best model. METHODS PubMed® data base was searched for articles describing animal models of ACS. RESULTS 25 articles were found. ACS in animals has not been defined yet. Investigations varied considerably regarding the experimental design. Animals were rats, rabbits, dogs and pigs with a bodyweight from 200g to 70 kg. IAP increase varied from 20 to 50 mmHg. The time period of IAH ranged between 30 min and 24h. The time between the IAH insult and organ dysfunction varied between 15 min and 18h. Investigations demonstrated that IAH is able to induce loss of intravascular volume, organ hypoperfusion, ischemic organ damage and multiple organ failure within 4 to 6h. CONCLUSION In contrast to IAH or pneumoperitoneum for surgical exposure, ACS in an animal may be stated if an artificially increased IAP leads to circulatory, respiratory and renal insufficiency. A next step in animal research would be the development of a "pathological" model in which haemorrhage or systemic inflammation together with resuscitation lead to abdominal fluid accumulation and increased intra-abdominal pressure.

A prospective assessment of renal oxygenation in children undergoing laparoscopy using near-infrared spectroscopy. Surg Endosc 2013; 27:3696-704. [PMID: 23605192 DOI: 10.1007/s00464-013-2950-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2012] [Accepted: 03/26/2013] [Indexed: 10/26/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study was designed to determine whether a decrease in renal oxygenation occurs during CO2 pneumoperitoneum in children with normal renal function undergoing laparoscopy. METHODS Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) probes were applied to both the lateral flank (T10-L2) and lateral cerebral area of all patients with normal renal function undergoing a laparoscopic procedure. Information was recorded in 5-s intervals for 15-min before, during, and for 15-min after pneumoperitoneum insufflation and desufflation. Simultaneously, additional hemodynamic parameters (arterial saturation, mean arterial pressure, end tidal CO2, and urine output) were recorded every 5-min. Pneumoperitoneum pressures used were: 0-1 month old, <6 mmHg; 2-12 months old, <8 mmHg; 1-2 years old, <10 mmHg, and 2-8 years old, <12 mmHg. The lowest possible pressure was used to obtain adequate vision. RESULTS Twenty-nine patients were enrolled in the study. Renal regional oxygen saturation (rSO2) did not decrease significantly between baseline (preinsufflation), insufflation, and desufflation of the pneumoperitoneum (p = 0.343). Meta-analysis of this data demonstrated a pooled weighted difference of -1.4 (-3.5 to 0.54), confirming no significant change. A significant increase in cerebral rSO2 occurred during the insufflation period of the CO2 pneumoperitoneum (p = 0.001). Heart rate (F = 11.05; p < 0.001) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) (F = 19.2; p < 0.001) also increased significantly during the laparoscopy. No significant correlation was identified between fluid input and urine output during the laparoscopy (r = 0.012; p = 0.953). CONCLUSIONS Renal hypoxia does not occur during laparoscopic surgery in children if the minimum age-appropriate intra-abdominal pressures are used. Alternative causes must account for the oliguria and anuria demonstrated in children undergoing laparoscopy.

Surg Endosc 2012; 27:1225-32. [PMID: 23232990 DOI: 10.1007/s00464-012-2579-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 44] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/18/2012] [Accepted: 08/26/2012] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Fast-track protocols, introduced in the late 1990 s, have been applied in several surgical fields, particularly for colorectal surgery. However, currently many surgical patients are elderly, and discussion about the application of such programs for elderly patients is lacking. The present study was designed to assess the safety of application of a fast-track program after laparoscopic colorectal surgery in elderly patients. METHODS From August 2009 to January 2011, we prospectively collected data from patients who underwent laparoscopic colorectal surgery with a perioperative fast-track program. The data of patients older and younger than 70 years were compared. RESULTS Of a total of 337 patients, the group of patients older than 70 years (OG) totaled 87 (25.8 %) and the younger group (YG) totaled 250 (74.2 %). Ten patients (11.5 %) were excluded in the OG and 24 (9.6 %) in the YG. There were no differences in gender, history of previous surgeries, body mass index, type of operation, operative time, or blood loss between groups. Age (74.8 vs. 56.7 years, p < 0.001), presence of comorbidities (70.1 vs. 44.7 %, p < 0.001), and ASA score (I:II:III, 33.8:57.1:9.1 vs. 60.6:33.2:6.2 %, p < 0.001) were significantly different between the two groups. Postoperative course did not show differences, including return of flatus, stool passage, advancement of diet, removal of urinary catheter, length of usage of IV antibiotics, complications, and length of postoperative stay. Emergency department visits or readmission within a month after discharge were more frequent in the OG (11.7 %) than the YG (4 %; p = 0.013). CONCLUSIONS Fast-track after laparoscopic colorectal surgery can be safely applied in carefully selected elderly patients older than age 70 years. Physicians should keep in mind complications that may present after discharge and should actively educate patients about them.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatic blood flow is known to decrease during pneumoperitoneum. Studies have shown that such changes affect kidney urinary output through the sympathetic pathway known as the hepatorenal reflex. This study investigated the potential role of the hepatorenal reflex in pneumoperitoneum-induced oliguria. The authors hypothesized that oliguria detectable during pneumoperitoneum is caused by activation of the hepatorenal reflex. METHODS Denervation of the sympathetic nervous structure was performed in 15 rats by applying 1 ml of 90 % aqueous phenol solution circumferentially to the portal vein and vena cava area at their entrance to the liver. The same was applied to only the peritoneum in 15 nondenervated rats. After 2 weeks, the rats were divided into three subgroups (5 rats per subgroup) that were exposed respectively to carbon dioxide-induced pneumoperitoneum at 0, 10, and 15 mmHg for 2 h. Statistical analysis was performed using Student's t test and analyses of variance. RESULTS Denervation did not affect the preinsufflation parameters. The denervated and the nondenervated 0-mmHg subgroups presented with similar parameters. The postinsufflation mean urine output was significantly lower in the nondenervated than in the denervated 10- and 15-mmHg subgroups (p = 0.0097). The denervated rats had a final creatinine clearance 29 % lower than the preinsufflation value (p = 0.83), whereas the nondenervated animals presented a 79 % drop in creatinine clearance (p = 0.02). CONCLUSION The study findings indicate that the hepatorenal reflex plays an important role in the pathophysiology of oliguria that occurs during pneumoperitoneum in the rat.

Abstract
Background Carbon dioxide (CO2) has different biophysical properties under different thermal conditions, which may affect its rate of absorption in the blood and the related adverse events. The present study was aimed to investigate the effects of heating of CO2 on acid-base balance using Stewart's physiochemical approach, and body temperature during laparoscopy. Methods Thirty adult patients undergoing laparoscopic major abdominal surgery were randomized to receive either room temperature CO2 (control group, n = 15) or heated CO2 (heated group, n = 15). The acid-base parameters were measured 10 min after the induction of anesthesia (T1), 40 min after pneumoperitoneum (T2), at the end of surgery (T3) and 1 h after surgery (T4). Body temperature was measured at 15-min intervals until the end of the surgery. Results There were no significant differences in pH, PaCO2, the apparent strong ion difference, the strong ion gap, bicarbonate ion, or lactate between two groups throughout the whole investigation period. At T2, pH was decreased whereas PaCO2 was increased in both groups compared with T1 but these changes were not significantly different. Body temperatures in the heated group were significantly higher than those in the control group from 30 to 90 min after pneumoperitoneum. Conclusions The heating of insufflating CO2 did not affect changes in the acid-base status and PaCO2 in patients undergoing laparoscopic abdominal surgery when the ventilator was set to maintain constant end-tidal CO2. However, the heated CO2 reduced the decrease in the core body temperature 30 min after the pneumoperitoneum.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The aims of our study were to evaluate the impact of increased intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) on central nervous system (CNS) cytokines (Interleukin 6 and tumor necrosis factor), lactate and perfusion pressures, testing the hypothesis that intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) may possibly lead to CNS ischemia. METHODS Fifteen pigs were studied. Helium pneumoperitoneum was established and IAP was increased initially at 20 mmHg and subsequently at 45 mmHg, which was finally followed by abdominal desufflation. Interleukin 6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFa) and lactate were measured in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and intracranial (ICP), intraspinal (ISP), cerebral perfusion (CPP) and spinal perfusion (SPP) pressures recorded. RESULTS Increased IAP (20 mmHg) was followed by a statistically significant increase in IL-6 (p = 0.028), lactate (p = 0.017), ICP (p < 0.001) and ISP (p = 0.001) and a significant decrease in CPP (p = 0.013) and SPP (p = 0.002). However, further increase of IAP (45 mmHg) was accompanied by an increase in mean arterial pressure due to compensatory tachycardia, followed by an increase in CPP and SPP and a decrease of cytokines and lactate. CONCLUSIONS IAH resulted in a decrease of CPP and SPP lower than 60 mmHg and an increase of all ischemic mediators, indicating CNS ischemia; on the other hand, restoration of perfusion pressures above this threshold decreased all ischemic indicators, irrespective of the level of IAH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Laparoscopic surgical techniques have been increasingly preferred to classic laparotomy by surgeons since 1987. The pneumoperitoneum is often used to facilitate the intra-abdominal field, but it carries the risk of its ischemic potential and has differences [l2]of metabolic, inflammatory, and infectious consequences, depending on the pressure set and kind of gas used. However, the mechanisms related with the cell injury observed after laparoscopy are still unknown. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of different pressures of CO(2) on apoptosis and p53 expression in small and large intestines and the stomach. MATERIALS AND METHODS In total, 30 Sprague-Dawley male rats were used in the study. CO(2) is insufflated into the intra-abdominal cavity through a angiocatheter cannule by an insufflator set at two different pressures of 10 and 20 mm Hg during 60 minutes. In the control group, the cannule was inserted into the intra-abdominal cavity without any other surgical procedure and no gas was insufflated. After 60 minutes, the rats were sacrificed and a laparotomy was performed. The small and large intestines and stomach were excised. The samples were histologically processed and an immunohistochemical analysis was performed. RESULTS The results of the study revealed that the number of apoptotic cells in intra-abdominal organs we studied increased in proportion to the CO(2) pressure level. However, the p53 expression was detected only in the stomach. CONCLUSIONS Our study showed that the number of apoptotic cells rises in parallel to the increase in intra-abdominal pressure following the CO(2) pneumoperitoneum in rat large and small intestine and stomach. Although the apoptosis was activated by the p53 pathway in the stomach, it was not so in the large and small intestine.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the metabolic consequences of the addition of oxygen to the CO(2)-pneumoperitoneum. DESIGN Prospective randomized study in rabbits. After 30 minutes of ventilation pneumoperitoneum was maintained for 90 minutes with pure CO(2) or CO(2) with 2% or 6% of oxygen. The intraperitoneal pressure was increased from 10 to 15 and 20 mm Hg every 30 minutes. Ventilation rate was either fixed or a progressive hyperventilation. End points were changes in arterial blood gases (Pco(2), Po(2)), pH, acid-base balance (actual base excess [ABE], standard bicarbonate [SBC], standard base excess [SBE], hydrogen carbonate [HCO(3)(-)], concentration of total carbon dioxide [Tco(2)]); oxygen and oximetry (oxyhemoglobin [O(2)Hb], oxygen saturation [So(2)], reduced hemoglobin [RHb], total oxygen concentration [To(2)], and oxygen tension at half saturation assessing hemoglobin oxygen affinity [p50]); and lactate concentrations assayed every 15 minutes. SETTING University research center. ANIMALS Twenty-four adult female New Zealand white rabbits. INTERVENTION(S) Anesthesia, mechanical ventilation, and pneumoperitoneum. RESULT(S) The effects of CO(2)-pneumoperitoneum on all end points increased with the elevated intraperitoneal pressure and were more pronounced when ventilation was fixed. Changes were less when 2% or 6% of oxygen had been added to the CO(2)-pneumoperitoneum. With use of logistic regression, the addition of oxygen, intraperitoneal pressure, and ventilation were found to be independent variables affecting Pco(2), pH, ABE, SBE, HCO(3)(-), O(2)Hb, So(2), p50, and end-tidal CO(2). CONCLUSION(S) The metabolic consequences of the combined effect of increased intraperitoneal pressure and CO(2)-pneumoperitoneum were less when 2% to 6% of oxygen was added or when animals were hyperventilated. We suggest that metabolic and mesothelial hypoxemia caused by CO(2) absorption can be reduced by adding small amounts of oxygen and by hyperventilation.

Abstract
Treatment of severe acute cholecystitis by laparoscopic cholecystectomy remains controversial because of technical difficulties and high rates of complications and conversion to open cholecystectomy. We investigated whether early laparoscopic cholecystectomy is appropriate for acute gangrenous cholecystitis. Pathologic diagnoses and outcomes were analyzed in patients who underwent laparoscopic or open cholecystectomy at our hospital, January 2002 to September 2005. Of 30 patients with acute gangrenous cholecystitis, 16 underwent early laparoscopic cholecystectomy, 10 underwent open cholecystectomy, and 4 were converted to open cholecystectomy (conversion rate, 20.0%). There was no significant difference in operation time or intraoperative bleeding. The requirement for postoperative analgesics was significantly lower (6.4+/-7.3 vs. 1.5+/-1.2 doses, P<0.05) and hospital stay significantly shorter (8.6+/-2.1 vs. 15.6+/-6.3 d, P<0.01) after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. There were no postoperative complications in either group. Thus, early laparoscopic cholecystectomy seems appropriate for acute gangrenous cholecystitis. Conversion to open cholecystectomy may be required in difficult cases with complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The precise physiologic consequences of insufflating carbon dioxide into the abdominal cavity during laparoscopy are not yet fully understood. This systematic review aimed to investigate whether pneumoperitoneum results in decreased renal blood flow (RBF) or renal function. METHODS A literature search was conducted electronically using Medline, Embase, and the Cochrane libraries on 1 July 2005. Various combinations of the medical subject headings--renal blood flow, pneumoperitoneum, renal function, and laparoscopy--were searched in all three databases. Reference lists from articles fulfilling the search criteria were used to identify additional articles. RESULTS The literature search retrieved 20 articles concerning RBF and 25 articles concerning renal function during pneumoperitoneum. It was found that 17 of the 20 studies identified a decrease in RBF, and 20 of the 25 studies identified a decrease in renal function during pneumoperitoneum. CONCLUSION There appears to be sufficient evidence to conclude that both renal function and RBF are decreased during pneumoperitoneum. The magnitude of the decrease is dependent on factors such as preoperative renal function, level of hydration, level of pneumoperitoneum, patient positioning, and duration of pneumoperitoneum.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pneumoperitoneum has been associated with a decreased flow in the superior mesenteric artery and portal venous system. Intestinal blood flow was studied during a 2-h pneumoperitoneum with carbon dioxide (CO2) or helium in a porcine model using colored microspheres. METHODS For this study, 12 pigs were divided into two groups (6 CO2 and 6 helium). Different colored microspheres were injected directly into the left ventricle before, 40, 80, and 120 min after insufflation with either gas at a pressure of 15 mmHg. Microsphere concentration was measured in the mucosa and muscularis/serosa layers of the jejunum, cecum, and sigmoid colon to calculate blood flow. RESULTS Intestinal perfusion initially increases with insufflation and returns to near baseline levels during pneumoperitoneum of 2 h. The effect of helium on tissue perfusion is similar to that of carbon dioxide. CONCLUSIONS Intestinal perfusion does not change significantly during prolonged pneumoperitoneum at a pressure of 15 mmHg with CO2 or helium.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Liver metastasis is an important prognostic factor in advanced colorectal cancer. Several studies have demonstrated that carbon dioxide (CO2) pneumoperitonem enhances liver metastasis in an animal model. In the present study, we used scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to investigate morphological changes in hepatic vascular endothelium after CO2 pneumoperitoneum in a murine model. METHODS Thirty-three male BALB/c mice were randomized to undergo pneumoperitoneum (CO2, air, or helium), open laparotomy, and anesthesia alone. After each procedure, the animals' livers were excised at days 0, 1, and 3 and examined by SEM. RESULTS In the CO2 pneumoperitoneum group, we observed rough surface and derangement of the hepatic vascular endothelial cells and intercellular clefts on day 1. In the other groups, no major morphologic changes were observed at any time. CONCLUSIONS Hepatic vascular endothelium changes after CO2 pneumoperitoneum. Such characteristic changes may play an important role in establishing liver metastasis after CO2 pneumoperitoneum.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Peritoneal absorption of CO(2) during abdominal insufflation in laparoscopy may disrupt the acid-base equilibrium and alter the physiological response to stress. Current nonventilated rodent models of laparoscopy do not manage the CO(2) load of pneumoperitoneum, but ventilated surgical rodent models are invasive (tracheotomy) and may independently induce the inflammatory response. MATERIALS AND METHODS A comprehensive rodent model of laparoscopy was developed. Rats were randomized to receive anesthesia alone, anesthesia plus CO(2) pneumoperitoneum, or anesthesia plus CO(2) pneumoperitoneum with videoendoscopic intubation and mechanical ventilation. Arterial blood-gas analysis was performed at baseline and after 30 min of intervention. RESULTS Baseline pH, pCO(2), and HCO(3)(-) arterial blood gas parameters were normal for all rats. After 30 min, pCO(2) and pH changed slightly but remained normal among rats receiving anesthesia alone (pCO(2) = 46.5 +/- 1.9; pH = 7.365 +/- 0.009) whereas animals receiving anesthesia plus CO(2) pneumoperitoneum that were dependent on spontaneous respiration for ventilation developed significant hypercarbic acidosis (pCO(2) = 53.2 +/- 1.9, P < 0.05; pH = 7.299 +/- 0.011, P < 0.001). This acidosis was completely corrected with increased minute ventilation in intubated rats receiving mechanical ventilation (pCO(2) = 36.8 +/- 1.5, P < 0.001; pH = 7.398 +/- 0.011, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS CO(2) pneumoperitoneum induces significant hypercarbic acidosis in nonventilated rats. Noninvasive endotracheal intubation is feasible in the rat with videoendoscopic assistance. Our noninvasive rodent model of laparoscopic surgery controls for anesthesia- and capnoperitoneum-related acid-base changes and provides an environment in which the biological response to pneumoperitoneum can be studied precisely.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The adverse effects related to CO2 pneumoperitoneum (PP) have been well documented. Although these effects in the state of cardiac failure have not been investigated, it appears to be common current clinical practice to use low-pressure PP in this clinical setting, assuming it to be safer. OBJECTIVE The aim of our study was to compare the hemodynamic changes with the application of conventional 15 mm Hg PP versus low-pressure 10 mm Hg PP in control and acute cardiac failure (ACF) animal models. METHODS We studied changes in cardiac output (CO), stroke volume (SV), and systemic vascular resistance (SVR), applying 10 mm Hg and 15 mm Hg CO2 PP in control and, following the pharmacological induction of acute cardiac failure, in 10 domestic pigs. RESULTS In control, the application of 10 mm Hg PP did not cause any significant hemodynamic changes compared to baseline parameters. The use of 15 mm Hg PP in the model with normal cardiac function, however, produced a significant change in the tested hemodynamic values: CO decreased from 3.8L/min to 2.8L/min (P =.0018); SV declined from 38 mL to 30 mL (P =.046); SVR increased from 1677 dyne.s.cm-5 to 2414 dyne.s.cm-5 (P =.049) compared to baseline. In the model of ACF induced by the intravenous infusion of sodium pentobarbital, the application of either 10 mm Hg or 15 mm Hg PP was found to have a similar hemodynamic trend: CO, 1.65 L/min vs. 1.41 L/min; SV, 23.2 L vs. 20.9 L; SVR, 2487 dyne.s.cm-5 vs. 2597 dyne.s.cm-5 (P = NS for all). CONCLUSIONS The application of low-pressure 10 mm Hg PP, compared to conventional 15 mm Hg PP, in the animal model of ACF does not appear to have any hemodynamic advantages.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Laparoscopy is used for almost all types of abdominal surgery because of its advantages, which include shorter postoperative hospital stay. However, pneumoperitoneum used to facilitate the visual field has severe metabolic, hemodynamic, and inflammatory consequences depending on the pressure level and the gas used. Helium (He), an inert gas, has been recommended for establishment of pneumoperitoneum since it does not alter the blood pH and PCO(2). Yet the oxidative response after He insufflation remains unknown. This study was undertaken to compare the levels of free radical production and antioxidant status following He and CO(2) pneumoperitoneum at different intra-abdominal pressure values. MATERIALS AND METHODS The subjects were 40 Sprague-Dawley male rats randomized to the following groups: He 10 (n = 8) was subjected to He pneumoperitoneum at 10 mm Hg for 60 minutes; He 15 (n = 8) was subjected to He pneumoperitoneum at 15 mm Hg for 60 minutes; CO(2) 10 (n = 8) was subjected to CO(2) pneumoperitoneum at 10 mm Hg for 60 minutes; CO(2) 15 (n = 8) was subjected to CO(2) pneumoperitoneum at 15 mm Hg for 60 minutes; and Control (n = 8) was subjected to sham operation without pneumoperitoneum. At the end of the experiment blood samples were obtained and plasma malondialdehyde, carbonyl, and sulphydryl levels were measured. RESULTS CO(2) pneumoperitoneum produced higher malondialdehyde and carbonyl responses and sulphydryl consumption compared to He, especially at 15 mm Hg (P = 0.01, P = 0.01, and P = 0.059, respectively). CONCLUSION Helium seems to limit the postoperative oxidative response following laparoscopy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent evidence suggests that the use of carbon dioxide to create a pneumoperitoneum during laparoscopy can lead to adverse structural, metabolic, and immune derangements within the peritoneal cavity, and that these can be dependent on the specific insufflation gas used. These changes include structural alterations in the mesothelial lining, pH disturbances, and alterations in peritoneal macrophage responsiveness. This contrasts with an apparent systemic benefit associated with laparoscopic, as compared with open, surgery. METHODS Recently published clinical and experimental studies related to the effect of pneumoperitoneum on the peritoneal surface are reviewed, and their relevance is discussed. RESULTS Structural changes in the peritoneal mesothelial surface layer such as widening of the intercellular junctions can be demonstrated with electron microscopy. Acidification of the peritoneum in response to carbon dioxide insufflation occurs not only at the peritoneal surface, but also in the underlying connective tissue, resulting in disturbances in the electrical surface charge and the release of various immune mediators such as endotoxin. Pneumoperitoneum also affects the local peritoneal immune environment resulting in alterations in cytokine production and phagocytic function, as well as diminished antitumor cell cytotoxicity. CONCLUSIONS Ultrastructural, metabolic, and immune alterations are observed at the peritoneal surface in response to a pneumoperitoneum. Experimental evidence suggests that these changes are carbon dioxide-specific effects. The consequences of these alterations to the local peritoneal environment are not well understood, but they may facilitate tumor implantation within the peritoneal cavity and adversely affect the ability to clear intraperitoneal infections. Further investigation into this area is warranted.

Abstract
AIM Oliguria is seen during elevated intraperitoneal pressure, but the physiological mechanisms are not yet clarified. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the changes in renal function, cardiac output and distribution of systemic blood flow (BF) that occur in connection with an elevation of intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) in a rat model by isotope-labelled microsphere technique. METHODS A 5 or 10 mmHg IAP was created by CO2 insufflation and maintained for 90 min in anaesthetized and mechanically ventilated rats. Rats with normal IAP served as controls. Blood flow and cardiac output measurements by injection of isotope-labelled microspheres were conducted at three time points. Acid-base balance, urine output, glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and urinary excretion products were also followed. RESULTS Glomerular filtration rate decreased [0.7-0.1 mL min(-1) g(-1) kidney weight (KW)] with elevated IAP, as did urine output (8.5-0.6 microL min(-1) g(-1) KW). Dramatic decreases were seen in renal excretion of sodium (by 97%), potassium (by 94%) and osmotic active substances (by 93%). Cardiac output was diminished by 54% at 5 mmHg and by 65% at 10 mmHg intraperitoneal pressure and systemic vascular resistance (SVR) was elevated threefold. CONCLUSION Cardiac output, measured by microsphere technique, decreased during elevated intraperitoneal pressure by CO2 in anaesthetized rats, while SVR was elevated and renal excretory functions were decreased to a large extent.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent data indicate that pneumoperitoneal carbondioxide (CO2) insufflation impairs hepatic macro- and microcirculation. Whether dopamine and endothelin-1 (ET-1) antagonists might restore liver blood during laparoscopic surgery has not yet been investigated. METHODS For this study, 30 male WAG/Rij rats were randomized into two groups to obtain pneumoperitoneum with CO2 (n=15) or helium (n = 15). All the animals were implanted with a polyethylene-50 cannula into the right vena jugularis and a Doppler ultrasound flow probe around the portal vein. In each group, the rats were administered dopamine (n = 5); JKC-10, JKC-301, which is a selective endothelin-1 (ET-1) antagonist (n = 5), or sodium chloride as a control (n = 5). Portal blood flow was measured during intraabdominal pressures 2 to 12 mmHg. Data were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis h-test. RESULTS The application of dopamine and ET-1 antagonists significantly improved portal blood flow over that of the control animals (p <0.05). No significant differences were found between CO2 and helium insufflation (P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Dopamine and ET-1 antagonism restore portal blood flow during laparoscopic surgery independently of the insufflation gas. Whether improved hepatic perfusion might have beneficial effects on liver function needs further investigation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of hepatic inflow occlusion (the Pringle maneuver) on laparoscopic radiofrequency (RF) ablation. METHODS Using a previously validated agarose tissue-mimic model, 1-cm simulated hepatic tumors (three per animal) were laparoscopically ablated in five pigs with normal perfusion and then in five pigs with hepatic artery and portal vein occlusion. Energy was applied until tissue temperature reached 100 degrees C (warm-up) and thereafter for eight min. Specimens were examined immediately after treatment. RESULTS Vascular occlusion was successful in all cases per color-flow Doppler ultrasound. Pringle time was 11.4 +/- 1.6 min. Warm-up time (2.7 +/- 1.4 vs 20.2 +/- 14.0 min) was significantly faster in the Pringle group. Ablation diameter (34.8 +/- 2.9 vs 24.7 +/- 3.1 mm), proportion of round/ovoid lesions (93% vs 20%), ablation symmetry (100% vs 40%), and margin distance (5.1 +/- 3.0 vs 1.1 +/- 1.2 mm) were significantly better for the Pringle group than the No Pringle group, respectively. CONCLUSION Using a Pringle maneuver during laparoscopic RF ablation significantly enhances ablation geometry and results in larger margins.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of carbon dioxide (CO(2)) pneumoperitoneum-induced changes in blood gases, acid-base balance, and oxygen homeostasis in rabbits. DESIGN Prospective, randomized, controlled study (Canadian Task Force classification I). SETTING University training and teaching center. SUBJECTS Twenty-six adult female New Zealand white rabbits. INTERVENTION Anesthesia and pneumoperitoneum. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS In anesthetized rabbits arterial blood gases, acid-base balance, oxygenation values, and lactate concentrations were assayed during 2 hours. Spontaneous breathing, superficial and optimal ventilation without pneumoperitoneum, and with pneumoperitoneum at low (6 mm Hg) and higher (10 mm Hg) insufflation pressures were compared. The CO(2) pneumoperitoneum profoundly affected blood gases, acid-base balance, and oxygen homeostasis. Carboxemia with increasing end-tidal CO(2) and partial pressure of CO(2) (p <0.001), acidosis with decreasing pH (p <0.001), and base deficiency with decreasing actual base excess (p <0.001), standard base excess and standard bicarbonate and acid excess with increasing hydrogen bicarbonate (p <0.05 and <0.01) were found. Desaturation (p <0.01) with decreasing oxyhemoglobin p <0.05) and hemoglobin oxygen affinity (p <0.01) were also found. Carboxemia with acidosis was more pronounced with higher (p <0.01) than with lower (p >0.05) intraperitoneal pressures, and also with spontaneous breathing (p <0.05) and superficial ventilation (p <0.001) than with optimal ventilation, resulting in metabolic hypoxemia. CONCLUSION In superficially ventilated and spontaneously breathing rabbits, CO(2) pneumoperitoneum profoundly affected blood gases, acid-base balance, and oxygen homeostasis, resulting in metabolic hypoxemia. With optimal ventilation and low intraperitoneal pressure carboxemia, respiratory acidosis, and changes in oxygen metabolism were minimal.

Abstract
The rat is increasingly being used to study the physiological response to elevated intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) during laparoscopic surgery. Although decreased portal venous flow associated with the elevated IAP has been reported in large animals, little information is available in rats. Furthermore, the relative blood flow changes in the hepatic artery and portal vein have not been reported. Therefore, this study was performed to elucidate the change in systemic and splanchnic circulation, including hepatic arterial and portal venular flow, during pneumoperitoneum in rats. Sprague-Dawley rats were assigned into either a ventilated or nonventilated group and then subjected to various levels of IAP (0, 5, 10, and 20 mm Hg) using carbon dioxide gas. At each pressure, both cardiac output and splanchnic organ flow were determined using fluorescent microspheres. There was no obvious hemodynamic difference between the ventilated and nonventilated groups. Mean arterial pressure and cardiac index were significantly lower with 20 mm Hg of IAP compared to 0 mm Hg in both groups. Flow to the spleen, stomach, duodenum, total intestine, and portal vein was all decreased by increasing IAP (P < 0.05 at 20 mm Hg compared to 0 mm Hg) and was significantly correlated to the decrease in cardiac index. However, the hepatic arterial flow was relatively preserved throughout all levels of IAP, suggesting activation of the hepatic arterial buffer response. We conclude that the decreased splanchnic flow during pneumoperitoneum largely depends on the decreased cardiac index. Hepatic artery flow, however, is selectively preserved and may provide protection for liver function during sustained elevations in IAP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND CO(2)-pneumoperitoneum used in endoscopic surgery induces system effects by CO(2) absorption. This study investigated the effect of the addition of O(2) to CO(2)-pneumoperitoneum, upon CO(2) absorption. METHODS The effect of a pneumoperitoneum using 100% CO(2) or 94% CO(2) + 6% O(2) upon arterial blood gases, acid base and O(2) homeostasis was evaluated. In series A suboptimal ventilation and a pneumoperitoneum pressure (PP) of 10 mmHg was used. In series B adequate ventilation and PP of 6 mmHg was used. RESULTS CO(2)-pneumoperitoneum profoundly affected blood gases and acid base homeostasis i.e. increasing pCO(2), HCO(3)(P < 0.001) and lactate concentrations (P < 0.05) and decreasing pH, actual base excess and standard bicarbonate (P < 0.001), resulting in metabolic hypoxaemia with desaturation, lower pO(2) (P < 0.001) and O(2)Hb (P < 0.05). These effects were more pronounced with higher PP and suboptimal ventilation. CONCLUSION CO(2)-pneumoperitoneum profoundly affected blood gases and acid base homeostasis resulting in metabolic hypoxaemia. The addition of 6% of O(2) to the CO(2)-pneumoperitoneum prevented these effects to a large extent. If these preliminary data are confirmed in the human, the addition of a few percent of O(2) to CO(2) could become important for endoscopic surgery of long duration, especially in obese patients with limited cardiorespiratory adaptation and steep Trendelenburg.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Port-site metastases after laparoscopic surgery may occur with greater frequency than would be expected following open resection of intra-abdominal malignancies, but the causal mechanism for this is incompletely understood. The possibility that insufflation may increase peritoneal blood flow producing a wound environment conducive to the formation of metastases was investigated. METHODS The effects of insufflation gas type and pressure were studied in 30-kg female pigs. Pigs were divided into five groups, which were subjected to insufflation at 12 mmHg pressure with helium, insufflation at 12, 8 or 4 mmHg pressure with carbon dioxide, or laparotomy. A microsphere technique utilizing two distinct radiotracers, 99mTc-labelled macroaggregated albumin (MAA) and 51Cr-labelled MAA, was used to study blood flow to the peritoneum, liver and kidneys. RESULTS Insufflation with carbon dioxide or helium gases had no effect on renal (P < 0.09) or hepatic blood flow (P = 0.54). However, insufflation significantly increased peritoneal blood flow when carbon dioxide (P < 0.05), but not when helium (P = 0.99), was used as the insufflating gas. CONCLUSION These data suggest that blood flow within the peritoneum is influenced by insufflation with carbon dioxide. It is conceivable that such hyperaemia could increase the propensity for implanted tumour cells to metastasize in these sites following laparoscopy.

Abstract
The short-term benefits of minimal access techniques include less pain, early mobilization, and shorter hospital stay. Nonetheless, significant data have accumulated regarding the complications associated with laparoscopic techniques, including those that are unique to laparoscopic surgery such as bile duct injury and disruption of major blood vessels. Other problems such as myocardial ischemia and respiratory acidosis are associated with the cardiopulmonary effects of pneumoperitoneum and systemic CO2 absorption. These physiologic changes, although tolerated by healthy patients, could have particular adverse consequences for infirm and critically ill patients. It would appear that minimizing IAP during insufflation decreases the risk of potentially marked cardiovascular changes and regional blood flow alterations. In turn, this could arguably decrease the risk of perioperative myocardial events, or organ dysfunction or failure. Laparoscopy in the critically ill patient is questionable because the role is not established. An ICU patient has little to gain from the benefits of early mobilization. Conversely, in the presence of raised ICP or borderline organ function, the physiologic changes associated with pneumoperitoneum and laparoscopy could have profound detrimental effects.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the influence of a novel intermittent sequential pneumatic compression device (Lympha-press) on the adverse cardiac and peripheral hemodynamic changes induced by positive-pressure pneumoperitoneum (PPPn) in laparoscopic surgery. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA Creation of PPPn is known to cause adverse central and peripheral hemodynamic changes. An intrasubject observational study was undertaken to quantitate these adverse changes and to assess the influence of an intermittent sequential pneumatic compression system on these adverse hemodynamic changes during laparoscopic surgery with PPPn. METHODS The study involved 16 consecutive patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery with PPPn of 12 mmHg and 30 degrees head-up tilt position. The following peripheral hemodynamic recordings were made using Doppler ultrasound: peak systolic velocity (PSV), end diastolic velocity (EDV), and cross-sectional area of the femoral vein. Central monitoring included cardiac output and stroke volume by transesophageal Doppler, blood pressure, and pulse. The hemodynamic state based on these parameters was assessed before induction of PPPn with the anesthetized patient in the supine position, after induction of PPPn and head-up tilt position with Lympha-press off, and during PPPn and head-up tilt position with Lympha-press on, and after desufflation with the patient in the supine position under general anesthesia. RESULTS Positive-pressure pneumoperitoneum and the head-up tilt position resulted in a 33% reduction in PSV, a 21% reduction in EDV, and a 29% increase in cross-sectional area of the femoral vein. This was associated with a 20% reduction in cardiac output and an 18% reduction in stroke volume. Activation of Lympha-press during PPPn and the head-up tilt position resulted in a 129% increase in PSV and a 55% increase in EDV by 55%. It also increased the cardiac output by 27% and stroke volume by 16%, with no effect on cross-sectional area. Compared with the pre-PPPn stage, there was no difference in cardiac output or stroke volume, but the PSV was higher by 78% and the EDV by 32%. After abdominal desufflation in the supine position, the cardiac output and stroke volume were restored to the pre-PPPn level, but persistent and significant elevations were observed during the period of study in PSV, EDV, and cross-sectional area. CONCLUSIONS Significant and individually variable central and peripheral hemodynamic changes are encountered during laparoscopic surgery with PPPn and the head-up tilt position. These are reversed by intermittent sequential pneumatic compression using Lympha-press.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies of the hemodynamic effects associated with the pneumoperitoneum have had controversial results. We set out to investigate the effect of increased intraabdominal pressure (IAP) on cardiac output and tissue blood flow in various intraabdominal and extraabdominal organs using the color-labeled microsphere (CLM) technique. METHODS IAP was induced by CO2 insufflation in anesthetized pigs; 0, 5, and 10 mmHg was used in the low-pressure group and 0, 15, and 24 mmHg in the high-pressure group. Tissue blood flow (ml.min-1.g-1) and cardiac output (CO) (ml/min) were determined by the CLM technique. RESULTS CO decreased at IAP > or = 15 mmHg. Arterial PaCO2 and hydrogen ion concentration increased in response to all levels of IAP. Arterial PaO2, oxygen saturation, and bicarbonate ion concentration remained unchanged. Low IAP did not influence tissue blood flows in most of the organs. However, in the spleen, pancreas, esophagus, and gastric mucosal specimens, tissue blood flow was significantly decreased at 24 mmHg. CONCLUSION The level of IAP used in current practice (10-12 mmHg) appears to be safe with regard to hemodynamic variables and tissues blood flow; however, higher levels may induce a decrease in cardiac output and tissue blood flow.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to compare the accuracy (in terms of ultrasound-guided probe placement) and the effectiveness (in terms of pathologic tumor-free margin) of laparoscopic vs open radiofrequency (RF) ablation. METHODS Using a previously validated tissue-mimic model, 1-cm simulated hepatic tumors were ablated in 10 pigs randomized to open or laparoscopic techniques. Energy was applied until tissue temperature reached 100 degrees C (warm-up) and thereafter for 8 min. A pathologist blinded to technique examined all specimens immediately after treatment. Analysis was by Fisher's exact test and the Mann-Whitney U test; p < 0.05 was considered significant. RESULTS Off-center distance (3.5 +/- 1.6 vs 4.2 +/- 1.4 mm), size (24.7 +/- 3.1 vs 25.6 +/- 3.8 mm), symmetry (40% vs 73%), margin positivity (33% vs 9%), and margin distance (1.1 +/- 1.2 vs 2.2 +/- 1.6 mm) were not significantly different between laparoscopic (n = 15) and open (n = 11) ablations, respectively. The proportion of round/ovoid lesions (20% vs 64%) was lower (p = 0.043), and warm-up time (20.2 +/- 14.0 vs 10.7 +/- 7.5) was longer (p = 0.049) for the laparoscopic than for the open groups, respectively. CONCLUSION Accurate probe placement can be achieved using laparoscopic and open RF ablation techniques. The physiologic effects of laparoscopy may alter ablation shape and warm-up time. Additional studies are needed to establish effective ways of achieving complete tumor destruction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to examine cytokine response and bacterial translocation after exposure of the intraperitoneal space to carbon dioxide (CO2), helium (He), and air (Air) in a rat model. METHODS For this study, 120 Sprague-Dawley rats underwent anesthesia only (Control), 10 mmHg pneumoperitoneum (PP), or abdominal wall lift (AWL). The rats were divided into five groups according to experimental procedure: Control, PP-CO2, AWL-CO2, AWL-He, and AWL-Air. At 0, 3, 6, and 24 h after the procedures, the levels of interleukin 1beta (IL-1beta) and interleukin 6 (IL-6) in both plasma and peritoneal lavage fluid (PLF) were measured, and the translocation of bacteria to the mesenteric lymph nodes was evaluated. RESULTS The plasma IL-1beta and IL-6 levels in the PP-CO2, AWL-CO2, and AWL-He groups were significantly lower than those in AWL-Air group at 6 h (p < 0.05). The PLF IL-1beta (at 3, 6, and 24 h) and IL-6 (at 6 h) levels in the AWL-CO2 group were significantly lower than those in the AWL-Air group (p < 0.05). There were no significant differences in IL-1beta and IL-6 responses among the PP-CO2, AWL-CO2, and AWL-He groups. The AWL-CO2 and PP-CO2 groups had lower incidences of bacterial translocation than did the AWL-Air group (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The results from this study suggest that the gas in the intraperitoneal space, but not the increased intraabdominal pressure, causes the alterations in host cytokine response and bacterial translocation. Carbon dioxide may play a primary role in the reduced immune response associated with laparoscopic surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the effects of dopamine and dobutamine administration on the systemic and mesenteric (macro- and microvascular) circulatory disturbances induced by intra-abdominal hyperpressure. DESIGN Prospective, randomized study. SETTING Animal research laboratory in a university hospital. SUBJECTS Twenty-five pigs of either gender, weighing 30-35 kg. INTERVENTIONS Animals were anesthetized, and their lungs were mechanically ventilated. Pulmonary artery flotation and carotid artery catheters were inserted for hemodynamic monitoring and blood sampling. A perivascular flow probe was placed around the superior mesenteric artery, and a laser Doppler probe was positioned in the lumen of the ileum to measure arterial and intestinal mucosal blood flows, respectively. CO2 was insufflated into the peritoneal cavity to reach an intra-abdominal pressure of 15 mm Hg, and 60 mins later, animals received dopamine (5 microg/kg/min; n = 10), dobutamine (5 microg/kg/min; n = 10), or saline (n = 5) for 30 mins. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Peritoneal CO2 insufflation induced significant increases in heart rate, arterial pressure, and systemic vascular resistance with concomitant decreases in cardiac output and superior mesenteric arterial and intestinal mucosal blood flows. Although dobutamine infusion reversed the decrease in cardiac output, it failed to restore superior mesenteric artery blood flow; however, intestinal mucosal blood flow returned to baseline levels. Dopamine also attenuated the decrease in cardiac output, but it had no beneficial effect on splanchnic hemodynamic variables. CONCLUSIONS Low-dose infusion of dobutamine, but not dopamine, corrects the intestinal mucosal perfusion impairment induced by moderate increases in intra-abdominal pressure.

Abstract
The ACS is a clinical entity that develops from progressive, acute increases in IAP and affects multiple organ systems in a graded fashion because of differential susceptibilities. The gut is the organ most sensitive to IAH, and it develops evidence of end-organ damage before the development of the classic renal, pulmonary, and cardiovascular signs. Intracranial derangements with ACS are now well described. Treatment involves expedient decompression of the abdomen, without which the syndrome of end-organ damage and reduced oxygen delivery may lead to the development of multiple organ failure and, ultimately, death. Multiple trauma, massive hemorrhage, or protracted operation with massive volume resuscitation are the situations in which the ACS is most frequently encountered. Knowledge of the ACS, however, is also essential for the management of critically ill pediatric patients (especially those with AWD) and in understanding the limitations of laparoscopy. The role of IAH in the pathogenesis of NEC, central obesity co-morbidities, and pre-eclampsia/eclampsia remains to be fully studied.
