Introduction: Data on laboratory markers of spontaneous intestinal perforation (SIP) and necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) remain sparse.
Objective: To compare serum alkaline
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the most commonly used insufflation gas to provide exposure in the abdominal cavity during laparoscopic surgery. This study investigated the results of hepatic and renal function tests after different capnoperitoneum intraabdominal pressures in dogs. Twenty-four beagle dogs
OBJECTIVE
The authors studied the influence of CO(2) pneumoperitoneum on intracellular pH and signal transduction arising from cancer cell multiplication in laparoscopic tumor operation.
METHODS
They set up a simulation of pneumoperitoneum under different CO(2) pressure, and then measured the
To compare the changes in hepatic enzymes and comfort level of the surgeon in low-pressure pneumoperitoneum laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LPPLC, 7 mm Hg) with that of normal pressure pneumoperitoneum laparoscopic cholecystectomy (NPPLC, 14 mm Hg).Eighty-two BACKGROUND
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) requires the creation of a pneumoperitoneum via insufflations of carbon dioxide; resulting in increased partial pressure of carbon dioxide (CO2) and intraperitoneal pressure which leads to the changes in pulmonary function and hemodynamic measurements.
BACKGROUND
It has been noted that following a laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC), liver function parameters were disturbed. The causes of this disturbance are still controversial.
METHODS
The serum levels of eight parameters of liver function were measured both before and 24 hours after surgery in
BACKGROUND
An intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) of 15 mm Hg reduces intestinal organ perfusion in humans and animals, but it is unknown whether this results in organ damage. The purpose of this study was to evaluate if an IAP of 15 mm Hg lasting for 24 h in a porcine model will lead to morphologic
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether an intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) of 30 mmHg lasting 24 h in a porcine model will lead to a condition comparable with the abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) in humans. We examined 12 intubated and anesthetized domestic pigs with a mean body
Recent reports suggest that laparoscopic laser cholecystectomy may become the preferred therapy for symptomatic cholelithiasis. To assess the efficacy and safety of this technique, using monopolar electrocautery instead of laser for the gallbladder dissection, laparoscopic cholecystectomy was
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the factors associated with liver function alterations after laparoscopy-assisted gastrectomy (LAG) for gastric cancer.
METHODS
We collected the data of gastrectomy patients with gastric cancer and divided them into 2 groups: open gastrectomy (OG) and LAG. We also collected the
BACKGROUND
With the advances in imaging and endoscopic technology, scope of endoscopic interventions in biliary obstruction associated with altered gastrointestinal (GI) anatomy has increased. We analyzed our experience on single-balloon enteroscopy and endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided ERCP
BACKGROUND
Pneumoperitoneum has been shown to reduce hepatic portal blood flow and alter postoperative hepatic transaminases. This study evaluated the changes in hepatic function after laparoscopic and open gastric bypass (GBP).
METHODS
Thirty-six morbidly obese patients were randomly assigned to
OBJECTIVE
Intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) has several pathophysiologic implications on human organs and systems. The aim of this experimental study was to investigate whether ischemic preconditioning (IP), namely the application of IAH for a small period of time prior to establish
BACKGROUND
Pneumporeitoneum at 14 mmHg causes dangerous hemodynamic disturbances in some patients, leading to splanchnic ischemia. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) using low-pressure pneumoperitoneum (7 mmHg) minimizes adverse hemodynamic effects on hepatic portal blood flow and hepatic function.
BACKGROUND
Several studies have suggested that carbon dioxide (CO2) pneumoperitoneum may have an effect on liver function. This study aimed to compare liver function after laparoscopically assisted distal gastrectomy (LADG) and open distal gastrectomy (ODG) for patients with liver
