Abstract

Purpose: We conducted this study to assess the effect of oral application of bovine colostrum on the plasma endotoxin and TNF-${\alpah}$ following the abdominal surgery. Methods: 46 patients who underwent the abdominal surgery were evenly enrolled in a prospective, randomized, double blind and placebo-controlled study. The patients were preoperatively managed by oral application of 20 g of a bovine colostrums or placebo (nonfat dried milk) per a day for 3 days. In both groups, endotoxin was sequentially determined pre-, intra- and postoperatively by a modified limulus amebocyte lysate test. TNF-${\alpah}$ and CRP were also measured. The clinical course was followed and compared in both groups. Results: The colostrum group showed significantly lower level of endotoxin and TNF-${\alpah}$ compared to the placebo group. CRP did not differ in both groups. Clinical event did not occur in both group until the discharge. Colostrum group tends to have a lower incidence of fever and leukocytosis without statistic significance. Conclusion: Prophylactic preoperative oral application of bovine colostrum lower the plasma level of perioperative endotoxin and TNF-${\alpah}$. Further studies were needed for the relation of clinical effect and preoperative oral application of bovine colostrum. (J Korean Surg Soc 2006;70:462-469)
