Summary
Determinations of SGPT, SGOT, LDH and γGT before, 24 hours and 5 to 7 days after administration of enflurane (Ēthrane — compound 347) as the major anesthetic agent are presented as the result of a clinical and laboratory investigation involving a total of 150 patients, including 48 cases of major upper abdominal surgery, 18 of which were cases of surgery of the biliary tract. Determinations made up to 7 days after surgery for SGPT, SGOT, LDH and γGT on patients anesthetized with Ēthrane revealed no changes suggesting the existance of an immediate toxic effect on the liver cells.
