Hemorheological factors may show arterio-venous differences. Alterations in acid-base and metabolic parameters may also influence these factors. However, little is known about changes in micro-rheological parameters during abdominal surgery, influencing splanchnic circulation. In anesthetized pigs, the external jugular vein, femoral artery and vein were cannulated unilaterally, and paramedian laparotomy was performed. In the anastomosis group, after resecting a bowel segment, end-to-end jejuno-jejunostomy was completed. Blood samples (from cannulas and by puncturing the portal vein) were taken before and after the intervention. Hematological, acid-base and blood gas parameters, metabolites, red blood cell (RBC) deformability and aggregation were determined. The highest hematocrit was found in portal blood, increasing further by the end of operation. A significant pH decrease was seen, and portal blood showed the highest lactate and creatinine concentration. The highest RBC aggregation values were found in arterial, the lowest in renal venous blood. The RBC aggregation increased with higher lactate concentration and lower pH. Osmotic gradient deformability declined, with the lowest values in portal and renal venous samples. In conclusion, micro-rheological parameters showed arterio-venous and porto-renal venous differences, influenced by oxygenation level, pH and lactate concentration. The intestinal anastomosis operation caused an immediate micro-rheological deterioration with portal venous dominancy in this experiment.
