Effects of CO2pneumoperitoneum on the abdominal viscera metastasis and peritoneal implantation of gastric cancer cell line / 中华消化外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the effects of CO2 pneumope ritoneum on the abdominal viscera metastasis and peritoneal implantation of gastric cancer cell line MKN45 during laparoscopic gastric surgery.Methods The gastric cancer cells metastatic model was eslhblished by injecting 1 ml(2×107/ml)human gastric cancer cell line MKN45 susDension into the caecum wall of 60 Balb/C mice.Two weeks later,the Balb/C mice were divided into CO2 pneumoperitoneum group(n=30)and laparotomy group(n=30). All mice were sacrificed 7 weeks later to investigate the abdominal viscera metastasis and peritoneal implantation of gastric cancer cells.Results Twenty-seven rats in CO2 pneumoperitoneum group were induced with tumor,including 8 with troear port implantation and 19 with organ metastasis;26 rats in laparotomy group were induced with tumor,including 7 with tracar port implantation and 19 with abdominal viscera metastasis,and the differences between the two groups had no statistical significance(x2=0.007,0.240,0.202,0.106,0.042,P＞0.05).Conclusions CO2 pneumoperitoneum does not stimulate the metastasis of gastric cancer(cells to peritoneum and abdominal viscera in Balb/C mice.Laparoscopic surgery for gastric cancer is safe and feasible.
