In the researchers' words

Inhalational anesthetics, when used in abdominal surgery, offer advantages of lung protection and reduced alveolar inflammation. There is little literature, however, in the comparative use of sevoflurane versus desflurane anesthesia in patients undergoing abdominal robotic-assisted surgery and their effects on lung mechanics.
