The peritoneum serves as an integral part of host immunity, and the homeostasis of intraperitoneal environment is held to be beneficial for patient recovery after abdominal surgery. How minimal invasive access to the abdomen by laparoscopy and incisions would alter the intraperitoneal immune response is not fully defined. This study examined the levels of IL-6 in serum and gut mucosa following laparoscopic surgery with reference to the peritoneum integrity and gas factors.
