Filter by:Around 10-18% of patients undergoing cholecystectomy for gallstones have common bile duct (CBD) stones. Currently, various procedures for the treatment of cholecystocholedocholithiasis are available including open cholecystectomy plus open common bile duct exploration (OC+OCBDE), laparoscopic cholecystectomy plus laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LC+LCBDE), may be trans-cystic or trans-choledochal, and laparoscopic cholecystectomy plus endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (LC+ERCP), which may be performed pre, at, or after LC.
The goal of this observational study is to compare the use of Airseal versus a standard insufflation, in children who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy, between January 2021 and December 2022. The main questions it aims to answer are: - amount of analgesics consumed postoperatively - mean digital pain scale Data are directly extracted from patients medical files. The investigators will compare the Airseal group (A group) to the Standard insufflation group (S group) to see if the A group consumes significatively less analgesics and are less painful than the S group.
The goal of this observational study is to assess the size and location of cutaneous sensory block area after dual laparoscopic assisted transverse abdominis plane block (L-TAP) with ropivacaine in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. L-TAP is applied as a medial subcostal infiltration between midclavicular and central sternal lines and a lateral subcostal infiltration between midclavicular and anterior axillary line bilaterally.
Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of early mobilization with consumption of tea, coffee, and warm water on bowel movements in patients who had laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery. Design: The study was a single-center, parallel, randomized, controlled trial. Setting: This study was carried out in the general surgery clinic of a university hospital in Türkiye. Metod: The participants were randomized into four equal groups: tea, coffee, arm water and control. At the 4th hour postoperatively, the patients in the intervention group were first mobilized after drinking 200 ml of tea, coffee or warm water within 15 minutes. The first mobilization and oral intake of the patients in the control group started at the 8th hour. Bowel movements, mobilization time, first flatulence, first stool removal and hospital stay of the patients were followed up. Data were collected with "Patient Information Form", "Glasgow Coma Scale", "Patient Mobilization Follow-up Form" and "Patient Undergone Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy Surgery Follow-Up Form". Hypothesis: H0-a: Early mobilization and tea consumption have no effect on the first flatulence time in patients who have undergone laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery. H0-b: Early mobilization and coffee consumption have no effect on the first flatulence time in patients who have undergone laparoscopic cholecystectomy. H0-c: Early mobilization and consumption of warm water have no effect on the initial flatulence time in patients who have undergone laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
The management of gallbladder stones (lithiasis) concomitant with bile duct stones is controversial. The management of CBD stones has evolved considerably since the advent of laparoscopic surgery. The more frequent approach is a two-stage procedure, with endoscopic sphincterotomy and stone removal from the bile duct followed by laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The laparoscopic-endoscopic rendezvous combines the two techniques in a single-stage operation. So the aim of this study was was to evaluate one-stage LC with intra-operative endoscopic sphincterotomy (IOES) vs two-stage pre-operative endoscopic sphincterotomy (POES) followed by LC for the treatment of cholecystocholedocholithiasis.
Retained CBD stone after ERCP is a common problem in clinical practice. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of saline irrigation of common bile duct after complete stone removal considered by ERCP in the reduction of residual CBD stone and the effect on clinical outcome.
The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of gallstone characteristics for the severity of acute gallstone pancreatitis (GSP)
This double-blinded randomized control trial aims to analyze the effect of low dose Ketamine on narcotic consumption, in patients undergoing Laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
In the current era, laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the treatment of choice for symptomatic gallstone disease. The aim of this study is to find out the prevalence of open cholecystectomy among patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy in a tertiary care center.
A prospective randomized study was performed including consecutive patients who underwent an elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) for symptomatic cholelithiasis during the 18 months period. This prospective randomized trial aims to compare two umbilical closure techniques for trocar site hernia (TSH) in laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
