Oliguria is infrequently viewed as a complication of laparoscopic surgery. The rate of urine output in six healthy patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery was measured during the period of CO2 pneumoperitoneum and for several hours after desufflation. The average hourly urine output during insufflation was 0.30 +/- 0.14 mL/kg despite an average hourly intravenous infusion rate of lactated Ringer's solution of 13.0 +/- 4.0 mL/kg. After release of pneumoperitoneum, urine output increased 467% to 1.7 +/- 1.1 mL/kg per hour. Patients remained hemodynamically unchanged perioperatively. Preoperative and postoperative blood urea nitrogen and creatinine concentrations did not significantly differ. We discuss the potential etiologic factors in the development of oliguria in the setting of the increased intra-abdominal pressure of pneumoperitoneum and the implications of this acute but reversible renal dysfunction.

Laparoscopic surgery with intraperitoneal insufflation is associated with acute oliguria. Although in healthy patients, this impairment is transient and without any apparent sequelae, as the scope of laparoscopic surgery expands, subtle renal injury may become clinically significant, particularly when applications expand to patients with reduced baseline renal function. We have investigated the changes in renal function during and after pneumoperitoneum in animals with reduced renal mass to identify both acute alterations and long-term impairments, if any. Twelve swine underwent surgical reduction in renal mass to produce chronic renal insufficiency. Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was determined by inulin clearance for each animal before and after ablation to establish the degree of renal impairment (mean 22%; range 18%-31% of normal). The animals were followed during a stepwise insufflation as a study of pneumoperitoneum-induced changes in chronic renal failure. Urine output declined dramatically (-80% at 20 mm Hg), the GFR fell (-63% at 20 mm Hg), and renal blood flow declined (mean -12%; range -9% to -19%) over the course of the test. These values did not return to baseline during a 90-minute observation period after release of the pneumoperitoneum. Acute renal failure occurred despite aggressive hydration with maintenance of central venous pressure and only modest changes in cardiac output. The animals were exposed to a 6-hour CO2 pneumoperitoneum to 20 mm Hg to model the insult of complex laparoscopy. This exposure resulted in elevation of the amount of N-methyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase being shed into the urine in addition to the previously indicated impairments. The animals were allowed to recover for 1 week, and then GFR was again measured. The GFR returned to the preexposure chronic renal failure levels for both the group as a whole and individual animals. The magnitude and duration of the alteration in urine output, GFR, and renal blood flow suggest that regulatory mechanisms rather than simple mechanical forces are involved in the acute changes. No long-term impact on renal function from the acute renal injury was identified, even in animals with existing renal insufficiency.

Oliguria is a recognized component of the physiologic effect of increased intra-abdominal or retroperitoneal pressure. The cause is multifactorial, emanating from vascular and parenchymal compression, and is associated with systemic hormonal effects. Ureteral obstruction does not play a significant role. These changes are pressure-dependent and are usually not apparent until pressures reach 15 mm Hg or more. This effect is not associated with any histologic pathology or evidence of renal tubular damage. After the release of the pneumoperitoneum or pneumoretroperitoneum, the renal function and urine output return to normal with no long-term sequelae, even in patients with pre-existing renal disease. The entire operative team must understand the physiologic effects of CO2 insufflation, which allows appropriate intraoperative monitoring and management and minimizes intraoperative and postoperative complications.

We evaluated the recovery of cardiovascular function after transient cardiogenic shock. Cardiac tamponade was performed for 1 h and post-shock data were collected in 5 domestic large white female pigs (43 +/- 5 kg) for 6 h. The control group (N = 5) was observed for 6 h after 1 h of resting. During 1 h of cardiac tamponade, experimental animals evolved a low perfusion status with a higher lactate level (8.0 +/- 2.2 vs 1.9 +/- 0.9 mEq/L), lower standard base excess (-7.3 +/- 3.3 vs 2.0 +/- 0.9 mEq/L), lower urinary output (0.9 +/- 0.9 vs 3.0 +/- 1.4 mL x kg(-1) x h(-1)), lower mixed venous saturation, higher ileum partial pressure of CO2-end tidal CO2 (EtCO2) gap and a lower cardiac index than the control group. Throughout the 6-h recovery phase after cardiac tamponade, tamponade animals developed significant tachycardia with preserved cardiac index, resulting in a lower left ventricular stroke work, suggesting possible myocardial dysfunction. Vascular dysfunction was present with persistent systemic hypotension as well as persistent pulmonary hypertension. In contrast, oliguria, hyperlactatemia and metabolic acidosis were corrected by the 6th hour. The inflammatory characteristics were an elevated core temperature and increased plasma levels of interleukin-6 in the tamponade group compared to the control group. We conclude that cardiovascular recovery after a transient and severe low flow systemic state was incomplete. Vascular dysfunction persisted up to 6 h after release of tamponade. These inflammatory characteristics may also indicate that inflammatory activation is a possible pathway involved in the pathogenesis of cardiogenic shock.
