STUDY OBJECTIVE: To investigate postoperative peritoneal dissemination of ovarian
cancer cells in a syngenic mouse model with and without controlled respiratory support …

Background We recently demonstrated that CO 2 pneumoperitoneum at low intraperitoneal
pressure (IPP) had few if any short-term effects on peritoneal dissemination when an ovarian …

Objective: To compare tumor growth, intraperitoneal implantation, and abdominal wall
metastasis after laparotomy and CO2 pneumoperitoneum in a rat ovarian cancer model …

Objective To compare the impact of CO2 laparoscopy, gasless laparoscopy, and midline
laparotomy on the development of distant metastases and on survival in two ovarian …

Background This study aimed too evaluate the proliferation and apoptosis of human ovarian
cancer cell lines HO8910 and SKOV 3 after exposure to a simulated laparoscopic carbon …

Background The mechanisms promoting postoperative peritoneal tumor dissemination are
unclear. This study aimed to investigate postoperative tumor dissemination over time on …

BACKGROUND Previous animal studies suggested that the peritoneal environment during a
carbon dioxide (CO2) pneumoperitoneum is hypoxic and that this may contribute to the …

BACKGROUND Animal experiments have suggested that a high intraperitoneal pressure
(IPP) might adversely affect the surgical peritoneal environment. The present experimental …

Aim of the study: To compare intraperitoneal tumor growth after CO2 laparoscopy (L),
gasless laparoscopy (GL), midline laparotomy (ML), and general anesthesia (GA) as a …

Objective We determine the main physical effects of pneumoperitoneum on tumour
dissemination and port-site metastases occurrence. Design A prospective randomised study …
