To evaluate the haemodynamic effects of portal triad clamping (PTC) during laparoscopic liver resection, 10 patients without cardiac disease were studied by invasive monitoring including a pulmonary artery catheter and were compared with a control group of 10 patients undergoing liver resection by laparotomy. During laparoscopic surgery, intra-abdominal pressure was kept below 14 mm Hg and minute ventilation was adjusted to prevent hypercapnia. Measurements were made before PTC (T1), 5 min after PTC (T2) and 5 min after clamp release (T3). During clamping with pneumoperitoneum, mean arterial pressure (MAP) remained stable (+2%; not significant), systemic vascular resistance (SVR) increased by 37% (P<0.01, T2 vs T1) and cardiac index (CI) decreased by 19% (P<0.01, T2 vs T1). During laparotomy and clamping, MAP increased by 18% (P<0.01, T2 vs T1), SVR increased by 36% (P<0.01, T2 vs T1) and CI decreased by 9% (not significant). We were unable to demonstrate a difference in haemodynamic changes during clamping with pneumoperitoneum vs the open surgical technique, but in a small number of patients this lack of difference could have been a result of inadequate statistical power. The haemodynamic changes that we found were well tolerated in these patients, who had normal cardiac function.
