View clinical trials related to Cholecystitis.
Filter by:Prospectively selected 100 cases of patients who suffered from gallstones ro cholecystic polypus and treated with laparoscopic cholecystectomy in our hospital. Randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group. The experimental group preserve the main cystic artery, and the control group treated with conventional laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Collection of statistics: including general data(gender, age, BMI, etc.), time of surgery, intraoperative blood loss, incidence of surgical complications (delayed hemorrhage, biliary injury, etc.) and postoperative pain score, etc.
The treatment of choice for acute cholecystitis is cholecystectomy performed as soon as possible after onset of symptoms. Up to 9-22% of patients undergoing cholecystectomy due to cholecystitis have common bile duct stones. Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) can aid in technical planning of the operation. Intraoperative cholangiography (IOC) is another method to assess anatomy and stones during operation. There is a lack of quality studies comparing findings of MRCP and IOC and effect on hospital admission. The aim of this study is to systematically assess the quality of MRCP and IOC in acute cholecystitis, and observe the effect of routine MRCP on surgery outcomes, length of hospital stay, hospital admission costs, and evaluate whether routine IOC could be replaced by MRCP.
1. determine the most important factors which is responsible for the outcome post bile and gallstones spillage during laparoscopic cholecystectomy 2. the management of complications of bile and gallstones spillage
More than 10% of Canadians have gallstones, and approximately 10% of these individuals will develop gallbladder inflammation related to gallstones, which is referred to as acute cholecystitis (AC). Patients with AC who do not have their gallbladder surgically removed have a 30% risk of serious complications that can lead to death. Surgery is the only definitive treatment for AC, however, there is controversy regarding the ideal timing of surgery. The two main approaches are early surgery (typically within 7 days of diagnosis) or delayed surgery (7 days to 6 weeks after diagnosis). Although preliminary evidence suggests that early surgery is associated with shorter hospital length of stay, lower risk for complications, and lower costs, practice varies widely regarding the timing of surgery. The limitations of the existing studies include small sample sizes, varied definitions of early versus delayed surgery, and an imbalance of risk between study groups. The proposed pilot study aims to inform the design of a large clinical trial that will compare the outcomes of patients with AC who receive accelerated surgery (i.e., as soon as possible with a goal of surgery within 6 hours of diagnosis) with those who receive standard care.
The aim of this study is to evaluate if the application of a Chlorhexidine coated suture (Novosyn® CHD) will reduce the colonization of bacteria in comparison to an uncoated suture (Novosyn®) used for the closure of trocar wounds in laparoscopic surgery (appendectomy and cholecystectomy).
The objective of this clinical trial is to visualize the bile ducts by injecting a contrast that is only visible with infrared light. For this, we administrate an intravenous low dose of ICG before a cholecystectomy. During the intervention the tissue will be exposed to infrared light to visualize the bile ducts. This technique aims to increase safety in surgery to avoid damaging bile or vascular structures during gallbladder interventions.
Objectives: To compare the safety of early (≤72h) versus late (>72h-7days) laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) from symptom onset for acute cholecystitis (AC). Background: As LC within 72h of symptom onset was considered the optimum time, sometimes there was a delay in diagnosis and management. So, we raised the question of safety and feasibility of performing LC to patients with AC who failed to have LC within 72h of acute attack. Patients and Methods: This was a prospective, randomized, double-blind, clinical trial; carried out on 120 patients presented with AC between September 2017 and April 2019. Patients were randomly allocated into two equal groups assigned to LC; group E: within 72h of symptom onset, and group L: after 72h up to seven days from symptom onset.
Surgeons usually choosing drainage tube for laparoscopic cholecystectomy according to their experiences but not guidelines. The investigators design a RCT to evaluate the role of drainage in LC surgery and compare the clinical results between drainage and no drainage.
The aim of this retrospective study was to assess the different outcomes of early (performed on the patient's first admission for acute cholecystitis) and delayed cholecystectomy (done on a second admission) at King Abdulaziz University Hospital in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
The importance of multimodal analgesia for postoperative pain management is well known and regional anesthesia techniques are commonly prefferred to provide better analgesia. Erector spinae plane block (ESB) is a new defined and effective regional anesthesia technique. But two injections can be unconfortable for some patients. With this study, we aimed to compare the analgesia effect of bilateral and unilateral ESP block for laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
