Clinical Trial Summary

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the treatment of choice for gall bladder stone disease. Difficult laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is the most common "difficult" surgical procedure performed today, which possesses the potential to place the patient at significant operative risk.The aim of this study was to put a scoring system to avoid difficult laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Description:

Patients with symptomatic chronic calculous cholecystitis based on clinical and radiological correlation undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy at Assiut University hospitals will be included for the study of 100 patients will operated by single experienced laparoscopic surgeon.The scores are given on history, clinical examination and radiological findings one day prior to surgery on admission.
