ABSTRACT

Introduction: Cholecystectomy is the surgical resection of the gallbladder and is one of the most routinely performed surgical procedures by general surgeons all over the world. Surgical options include the newer, standard procedure called laparoscopic cholecystectomy and an older, more invasive procedure called open or traditional cholecystectomy. Cholecystitis is mainly due to calculous stones or commonly known as gallstones. One of the contraindication of laparoscopic cholecystectomy is Mirizzi syndrome. Aims: This study aims to evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of laparoscopic cholecystectomy and to assess the outcomes postoperatively. Materials and methods: A prospective study was conducted on 52 patients with calculous cholecystitis admitted in the surgical ward of a single unit in Medicon Click health services, Bangalore, from September 2010 to January 2015. Results: Of the 52 cases who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy, and were followed up for a period of 1year, females accounted for 84.6%. Maximum age prevalence was noted in the age group between 21 years to 30 years. The mean operating time was 75 minutes with a mean postoperative stay off 48 hours. Intraoperative complications included gall bladder perforation and haemorrhage. Surgical site infection of about 13.5% was the most common postoperative complication. Conclusion: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the gold standard treatment in calculous cholecystitis
