Abstract:
Objective To study the indication and the feasibility of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) combined with laparoscopic appendectomy (LA). Methods Following routine LC under general anasthesia,a dissecting forceps was introduced from the 10 mm trocar on the right McBurney point.The appendix was excised outside the abdomen,or removed by using an electrotome after the mesoappendix and the appendix root were dipped. Results The operation time was 29~76 min (mean, 48 min) and the length of hospital stay was 2~7 days(mean,3 days).Complications occurred in 3 cases: 1 case of transection of the common bile duct, 1 case of appendicular artery bleeding, and 1 case of right lower abdominal pain with unknown causes. Conclusions LC combined with LA is feasible and applicable to cholecystic benign diseases accompanying simple or suppurative appendicitis.
