Signs of reperfusion injury following CO2 pneumoperitoneum: an in vivo microscopy study

Abstract: This in vivo observation demonstrated traces of reperfusion injury in liver induced by the insufflation and desufflation of CO(2 )pneumoperitoneum. The clinical relevance of this finding and the issue of using hepatoprotective substances to prevent this injury should be further investigated.

“…A study by Nickkholgh et al demonstrated that pneumoperitoneum at 12 mmHg for 90 minutes induced histological (in vivo light microscopy) and biochemical (plasma liver enzyme levels) evidence of liver reperfusion injury in rats. 10 A significant increase in oxidative stress (MDA, protein carbonyls) was also observed in a rat model of laparoscopic donor nephrectomy. 33 Extra-abdominal organs also demonstrate oxidative stress with pneumoperitoneum, such as significantly increased MDA levels in rat lungs 2 and 6 h after deflation.…”

“…7,30,35 Pneumoperitoneum performed in rats with a pressure of 5, 10 or 15 mmHg resulted in an incremental increase in the formation of free oxygen radicals in lung and liver tissues. 36 In the study by Nickkholgh and colleagues, 10 histological and biochemical evidence of liver reperfusion injury was demonstrable at 12 mmHg but not at 8 mmHg.…”
