    Effect of abdominal insufflation on bacterial growth in experimental peritonitis
    (Mary Ann Liebert Inc Publ, 2001) Sare, M; Demirkiran, AE; Alibey, E; Durmaz, B
    Background: Perforated appendicitis can be treated laparoscopically, but this approach is associated with a higher rate of intra-abdominal abscess. Pneumoperitoneum impairs the clearance of bacteria from the peritoneal cavity in experimental models of peritonitis. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of intra-abdominal gas insufflation on bacterial growth in a rat model. Materials and Methods: The effects of intraperitoneal insufflation with different gases and a gasless model on bacterial proliferation in a setting of Escherichia coli-induced experimental peritonitis were studied in a rat model. Saline (0.25 mL) was given intraperitoneally to six Wistar male rats as the sham group. Escherichia coli (1.5 x 10(9) cfu/mL per kilogram) was injected intraperitoneally into to 24 rats. Microorganism counts were taken after 8 hours, and rats were divided into three groups: group 1, CO2 insufflation; group 2, N2O insufflation; and group 3, no insufflation. Microorganism counts were repeated 8 hours after the procedure (at 16 hours postinjection). Results: The difference in microorganism counts between 8 and 16 hours were significant in the CO2 and N2O insufflation groups (P < 0.05) but not in the group without pneumoperitoneum. Conclusions: Abdominal insufflation may promote intra-abdominal bacterial growth or decrease intra-abdominal bacterial clearance.

    Effects of laparoscopic models on anaerobic bacterial growth with Bacteroides fragilis in experimentally induced peritonitis
    (Mary Ann Liebert Inc Publ, 2003) Sare, M; Demirkiran, AE; Tastekin, N; Durmaz, B
    Background: Previous reports of recurrent intra-abdominal abcess formation after the laparoscopic treatment of perforated acute appendicitis led us to investigate the possible effects of gas insufflation on the spread of infection. We previously showed that Escherichia coli counts were significantly higher in a laparoscopy group that underwent carbon dioxide (CO2) insufflation than in control and laparotomy groups. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of intra-abdominal CO2 and nitrous oxide (N2O) insufflation on anaerobic bacterial growth in a rat model. Methods: A standard strain of Bacteroides fragilis (ATCC 25285) was injected intraperitoneally (1 x 10(6) cfu/mL per kilogram) in 40 Wistar rats under sterile conditions. Forty rats with induced peritonitis were randomly divided into five groups: control, laparotomy, CO2 insufflation, N2O insufflation, and one group without pneumoperitoneum. Eight hours after the intraperitoneal injection of B. fragilis, peritoneal aspirates were obtained and inoculated onto Brucella agar. At the sixteenth hour of induced peritoneal infection (corresponding to hour 8 in the laparoscopy groups) all animals underwent laparotomy; peritoneal aspirates were obtained and inoculated into Brucella agar for bacterial counts. The colonies of B. fragilis were counted manually, and the results were expressed as the mean number of colony-forming units per milliliter. Results: No significant differences in microorganism counts were noted between the study groups before the procedure (p >.05 for all comparisons). We observed a significant increase in the number of bacteria (mean +/- SD) in the CO2 insufflation group between hour 8 and hour 16 of peritoneal contamination. Conclusion: The results suggest that CO2 insufflation may promote the growth of intra-abdominal anaerobic bacteria. Such bacterial growth may lead to intra-abdominal abcess formation or cause localized peritonitis to develop into generalized peritonitis. We suggest that laparoscopy without pneumoperitonemn may be preferred in patients with peritonitis.
