Peritoneal IL-10 was significantly raised on postoperative day 1 in patients who subsequently developed AL. This may be a useful early predictor of AL and aid in an earlier diagnosis for postoperative colorectal patients. The range of cytokines investigated within the literature is limited and from heterogeneous studies which suggests more research is needed.
