[Pancreas and laparoscopy].
Number of studies were performed about pneumoperitoneum effect formed during laparoscopic surgery to the function of thoraco-abdomininal organs. However, studies about influence of pneumoperitoneum to the pancreas function are very rare. This is just what this study is about. Two groups of patients are included in the study: examined group of about 30 patients who had holecistectomy performed by laparoscopic surgery technique, and the control group (30 patients) who had holecistectomy performed by the laparotomic technique. Activity of the pancreas amylases was controlled 2, 6, 24, 48 and 72 hours, for the patients from both groups, before and after the surgery.


CONCLUSIONS
After statistic analysis of gained data it was not possible to prove that pneumoperitoneum with a pressure of 15 mmHg has influence to the excretory pancreas function.
