Postoperative ileus after abdominal operations is thought to be related to the degree of surgical trauma, and it has been shown that the simple act of opening the peritoneum can decrease gastrointestinal motility. Accordingly, some investigators have shown a reduction in the duration of postoperative ileus after laparoscopic procedures. It is not clear, however, if this reduction is secondary to less manipulation of the viscera or to the lack of an abdominal incision. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of intraabdominal insufflation with CO2 on postoperative gastrointestinal transit.
