The effect of assisted ventilation and CO(2) pneumoperitoneum during laparoscopic surgery upon blood gases and adhesion formation were evaluated in mice. We confirmed that the CO(2) pneumoperitoneum induces acidosis and enhances adhesion formation, and an association between both effects was demonstrated, together with its modulation by the assisted ventilation.
