Difficult Management of a Double-Lumen Endotracheal Tube and Difficult Ventilation during Robotic Thymectomy with Carbon Dioxide Insufflation [PDF]
Robotic surgery with carbon dioxide (CO2) insufflation to the thorax is frequently performed to gain a better operative field of view, although its intraoperative complications have not yet been discussed in detail. We treated two patients with difficult

Carbon dioxide insufflation technique as a potential cause a hemodynamic collapse in a patient without cardiovascular risk factors: A case report [PDF]
Intrathoracic carbon dioxide (CO₂) insufflation improves surgical field visibility during robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery but can induce hemodynamic instability.

Background: When compared with fluid arthroscopy, carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) insufflation offers an increased scope of view and a more natural-appearing joint cavity, and it eliminates floating debris that may obscure the surgeon’s view.

Two Cases of Endometriosis in the Cecum Detected by Contrast-enhanced Computed Tomography with Air/Carbon Dioxide Insufflation [PDF]
We herein report two patients with endometriosis in the cecum. Both patients presented with a protruding, subepithelial tumor on colonoscopy and were diagnosed with cecal endometriosis after surgical resection.

Placental gas exchange during amniotic carbon dioxide insufflation in sheep [PDF]
Objective: Insufflation of the amniotic cavity with carbon dioxide (CO2) is used clinically to improve visibility during complex fetoscopic surgery. Insufflation with heated, humidified CO2 has recently been shown to reduce fetal hypercapnia and acidosis

In laparoscopic surgery the abdominal cavity is insufflated with pressurized carbon dioxide gas to create workspace. This pressure is exerted through the diaphragm onto the lungs, competing with ventilation and hampering it.

Comparison of carbon dioxide and air insufflation use by non-expert endoscopists during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography [PDF]
Background: Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is subject to several complications that include a lengthy procedure time, technical difficulty, and active bowel movement induced by air insufflation.
