    This study is aimed at determining the frequency and duration of pneumoperitoneum in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgeries. Material & methods: This is a prospective observational study done in SCB medical College, Cuttack .The study was done on a sample of 144 patients .Serial chest x ray in erect posture was performed from POD-1 till pneumoperitoneum persists. Results: No evidence of pneumoperitoneum was seen on chest radiographs taken on POD-day 1 in 52(36%) of the 144 patients who completed the study. Pneumoperitoneum diminished in all of the remaining 92 patients within the first week. Conclusion: Pneumoperitoneum vanished with 3days in most of the patients. The pneumoperitoneum vanished early in patients having laparoscopic surgeries in comparison to laparotomy. Gas under diaphragm in early post operative period should not be considered as an indication for laparotomy.
