    Study ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of carbon dioxide (CO(2)) pneumoperitoneum and retropneumoperitoneum insufflation on CO(2) excretion.DesignProspective study.SettingOperating room and recovery room in a teaching hospital.Patients29 patients scheduled for orthopedic spine fusion surgery.InterventionsPatients received either transperitoneal insufflation (n = 12) or retroperitoneal insufflation (n = 17).Measurements And Main ResultsIncreases in the partial pressure of end-tidal CO(2) (PetCO(2)) and arterial CO(2) tension (PaCO(2)) during retropneumoperitoneum exceeded those obtained during pneumoperitoneum. Furthermore, PetCO(2) increased faster during retroperitoneum and did not reach a plateau. Finally, 76% of the patients in this group required ventilatory adjustment due to high PetCO(2) levels.ConclusionsThis study may focus attention on the need for continuous ventilatory adjustments during transperitoneal endoscopic surgery.
