We believe that subtotal cholecystectomy is a safe alternative to total cholecystectomy when the complicated gallbladder is encountered, resulting in decreased or equivalent risk of bile duct injury, major vascular injury, postoperative hemorrhage, infectious complications, and mortality. Additionally, we hope to further elucidate the expected outcomes of the varying subtypes of subtotal cholecystectomy in order to determine the safest approach, assuring the lowest need for secondary intervention, recurrent biliary disease, or need for a completion cholecystectomy.
The study will compare the outcomes of patients with gallstone related cholecystitis who are poor surgical candidates undergoing EUS guided cholecystoenterostomy via a lumen apposing metal stent (LAMS).
This study examines if remote ischemic preconditioning in patients undergoing minor acute abdominal surgery (laparoscopic cholecystitis due to acute cholecystitis) is associated with a modulation of endothelial dysfunction. half of the patients will receive remote ischemic preconditioning prior to surgery, the other half will serve as controls.
Background. Many studies have demonstrated reduced postoperative pain in patients undergoing lower pneumoperitoneum pressure level during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. However, most of them has shown a high risk of bias and low or very low quality of evidence. Considering the need to evaluate, not only the postoperative pain, but the effect of anesthesia and surgery on patient recovery and satisfaction, we have designed a prospective, randomised and double-blinded study to evaluate the quality of recovery, using the Quality of Recovery Questionnaire (QoR-40), in patients undergoing LC under low-pressure or standard pressure pneumoperitoneum. Methods. Eighty patients aged 18 to 65 years of age will be randomised into 2 groups: LP (low-pressure - 10mmHg) or S (standard - 14 mmHg) enrolled in the study. Anesthesia will be induced with remifentanil, propofol and rocuronium and the maintenance will be achieved with sevoflurane and remifentanil Anesthesiologists and surgeons will not have access to insufflation pressure display. The primary outcome will be assessed using the Quality of Recovery Questionnaire (QoR-40) which is a 40-item quality of recovery scoring system. In addition, the intraoperative rocuronium consumption, time to eye opening (time from the discontinuation of anesthetics to eye opening), post-operative nausea and vomiting, pain score, analgesic use, and length of PACU stay (time to Aldrete score ≥ 9) will be recorded.
This study compares the visualizationrate of fluorescent and X-ray cholangiography during laparoscopic cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis
This is an interventional multi-centre study comparing two groups of general practitioners with or without an ultrasound scanner over a period of 6 months. The evaluation focuses on the management of patients for 8 pathologies: - Pneumonia - Pleural effusion - Renal colic - Hepatic colic or cholecystitis - Subcutaneous abscess or cyst - Fracture of long bones - Intra-uterine pregnancy or extra-uterine pregnancy or miscarriage - Phlebitis The principal hypothesis is that there are fewer complementary exams in the group of doctors using ultrasound scanners. The secondary hypotheses are: - There is better patient orientation (emergency care, specialist consultation, return home) in the group of doctors using the ultrasound scanners. - The global cost of the care is lower in the group of doctors using the ultrasound. - Using ultrasound during the consultation decreases the anxiety of the patient. - Using ultrasound increases the duration of the consultation. - There is no difference between the predicted and the real orientation of the patients.
This is a prospective, multi-center, randomized, single-blind, parallel-controlled clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Chinese domestic endoscopic instrument control system in clinical treatment.
Various modifications have been tried in laparoscopic cholecystectomy since its introduction. One, two and three port LC have been performed on limited scale. we aim to compare three port LC with four port LC in patients with cholelithiasis. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the outcome of 3 ports LC for treatment of cholelithiasis by comparing the result with 4 ports LC with respect to safety and efficacy.
Acute lithiasis cholecystitis (ALC) is the third most common cause of surgical emergency admission. The initial treatment of ALC associates a medical support and a cholecystectomy, preferentially performed laparoscopically in the first 5 days of evolution. During the surgery, intraoperative cholangiography (CPO) using a contrast product is the "gold standard" to identify the bile ducts. However CPO is performed in approximately 30% of laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy for ALC is associated with an increase in the rate of biliary ducts injuries compared with cholecystectomy for symptomatic vesicular lithiasis, evaluated at 0.8 % versus 0.1 %. Its higher rate is related to local inflammation that alters the biliary anatomy and complicates the identification of the bile ducts. Indocyanine green facilitates the visualization of extrahepatic biliary structures, which could reduce the risk of biliary wound and shorten the operating time.
