Filter by:Study of Oxidative Stress Markers in order to assess whether there are differences between standard laparoscopic cholecystectomy vs single port cholecystectomy for uncomplicated cholelithiasis
To determine the effect of combined intracutaneous infiltration and intraperitoneal instillation of 80 mL 0,125% levobupivacaine prior to the start of laparoscopic cholecystectomy on abdominal pain up to 24 hours after surgery.
This study will compare Single Incision Laparoscopic Surgery (SILS) cholecystectomy to traditional laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC), focusing on patient-reported outcomes and cost.
The aim of the study is to identify patients with gallstone disease that should be operated and those that may potentially be observed. This selection was based on symptoms and clinical presentation. The consequences that may arise for the patient if observation is chosen compared with outcome after cholecystectomy has been markers of outcome.
The aim of this study is to improve the technique of laparoscopic cholecystectomy by using a flexible endoscope passed through a single umbilical skin incision, as previously reported, now with the use of Manually Articulating Devices (Ethicon Endo-Surgery, Inc.) through the endoscope.
The aim of this study was to compare between the safety and efficacy of the harmonic shears and the commonly used clip technique in achieving safe closure and division of the cystic duct in the laparoscopic cholecystectomy in day surgery setting
Participation in this research study does not involve any procedures. Health preference will be ascertained through standard techniques including time-tradeoff, standard gamble, and rating scale to assess risks regarding potential complications specific to NOTES (Natural Orifice Translumenal Endoscopic Surgery)gallbladder removal.
This is a study of the inflammatory reaction in standard 4 port laparoscopic cholecystectomy vs Single Port Laparoscopic (SIL) cholecystectomy. It is assumed that the reduced trauma in SIL Cholecystectomy causes reduced inflammatory reaction compared to the 4 port laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
The aim of this study is to compare results of the new surgical strategy to the traditional 4-ports technique for cholecystectomy in a randomized controlled trial (RCT). In particular we are going to investigate the procedures in terms of overall morbidity, while taking into considerations skin-incision's related morbidity, postoperative pain and cosmetic results which are the hypothetical benefits of the new approach. Other parameters are supposed to be unchanged, considering evidences from recent literature. Surgical procedures: 4 ports cholecystectomy (4PC): a 12mmHg pneumoperitoeum is created either by a 10mm umbilical Hasson's port or by a Verress needle followed by a 10mm umbilical port insertion; further one 10mm and two 5mm ports are placed according to the preferred technique. Single Port Access cholecystectomy (SPC): the single-port device is inserted through the umbilicus, by means of an adeguate incision, as the only access to the abdominal cavity. A trans-abdominal suture in right hypochondrium is placed through the gallbladder wall of the fundus to retract it. Primary endpoint: overall morbidity rate (at 60 days from surgery) Secondary endpoints: 1. skin-incision's related morbidity rate (at 60 days from surgery) 2. perioperative pain 3. cosmetic results 4. long-term morbidity (12 months) 5. intraoperative time 6. "conversion SPC to 4PC" rate 7. "conversion to laparotomy" rate 8. hospital stay
Standard cystic duct cholangiography (CDC) during laparoscopic cholecystectomy can be difficult, time consuming and bile duct injury may be caused by attempts to cannulate the cystic duct. Operative cholangiography performed by direct puncture of the gall bladder fundus or Cholecystocholangiography (CCC) is a valid and easier alternative.
