NCT03020641

Brief Summary

The investigators hypothesized that applying a low intraperitoneal pressure pneumoperitoneum (≤ 8mmHg) during laparoscopic cholecystectomy, the adverse impact on the surgical peritoneal environment (measured as gene expression of extracellular matrix, adhesion and inflammatory cytokine as well as oxidative stress response and apoptotic index), can be minimized and probably clinical outcomes might be better.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Inflammatory Peritoneal Markers

    logaritmic levels of mRNA of the different markers at time 1 hour after creation of the pneumoperitoneum

    he values will be obtained from the study of peritoneal tissue samples one hour after the creation of the pneumoperitoneum (T1).

  • Remodeling Peritoneal Markers :( Gene Expression (mRNA) Levels of)

    f. CTGF "connective tissue growth factor". g. MMP-9 "matrix metalloproteinase-9". h. PAI-I "plasminogen activator inhibitor-I". i. E-selectin. Samples will be processed to obtain total RNA with TRI Reagent™ (Sigma) and will be quantified with NanoDrop spectrophotometer.

    The values will be obtained from the study of peritoneal tissue samples one hour after the creation of the pneumoperitoneum (T1).

  • Oxidative Stress Response Marker:MDA (Malondialdehyde)

    MDA (malondialdehyde) determination will be done with ELISA

    The values of the main variables will be obtained from the study of peritoneal tissue samples one hour after the creation of the pneumoperitoneum (T1)

  • Apoptotic Index

    This measure is reported as the mean of the difference of the percentage of apoptotic cells at baseline minus the final

    The values of the main variables will be obtained from the study of peritoneal tissue samples, one hour after the creation of the pneumoperitoneum compared to basal peritoneal tissue samples.
