Prolonged, increased intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) during laparoscopic surgery has been associated with oliguria and anuria. ⋯ The decreased UO during prolonged IAP greater than or equal to 15 mm Hg in the animal model is associated with a corresponding decrease in RVF, but does not appear to be associated with any permanent renal derangement nor any transient histologic changes.
