[Change in arterial ketone body ratio during gastrectomy and mastectomy].
We evaluated the influence of operative procedure on arterial ketone body ratio (AKBR), which indicates the function of the liver cells, in patients undergoing gastrectomy or mastectomy. AKBR during the stomach resection was significantly lower than that during the breast resection. A significant reduction in AKBR due to induced hypotension was observed in mastectomy group. SGOT and SGPT increased significantly in gastrectomy group, but unchanged in mastectomy group on the first and the seventh postoperative days. On the first post-operative day, SGOT and SGPT in gastrectomy group were significantly higher than those in mastectomy group. These findings suggest that influence of operative procedure on the liver during gastrectomy is more serious than that during mastectomy.
