Abstract:
Objective To investigate the safety and feasibility of electrocoagulation of gallbladder artery in laparoscopic cholecystectomy ( LC) . Methods A total of 376 patients with gallbladder benign diseases underwent LC in our hospital from May 2004 to September 2013.The gallbladder artery was treated by electrocoagulation . Results Because of unclear gallbladder triangle due to abdominal adhesion , conversion to laparotomy was performed in 9 patients.In the remaining 367 patients, three-port LC with electrocoagulation of the gallbladder artery was conducted successfully .Laparoscopic appendectomy was conducted simultaneously in 12 patients.An additional fenestration and drainage of the left renal cyst was performed in 1 patient.Postoperatively, a secondary bile duct exploration was conducted in 1 patient because of bile duct obstruction caused by common bile duct stones . Conclusion The electrocoagulation of gallbladder artery is safe and feasible in LC for the treatment of gallbladder benign diseases .
