Abstract:
3 d in 16)were converted to open surgery because of massive adhesion at the Calot's triangle(13 cases),severe wound hemorrhage(4),common bile duct stones(4),gallbladder-duodenum fistula(2),gallbladder-colon fistula(1),or Mirizzi syndrome(1).During the operation,no bile duct injury occurred.None of the patients had intra-abdominal haemorrhage,biliary leak,or subhepatic abscess after the operation.The 279 patients were followed up for 5 to 24 months with a mean of 12 months,during which no patients complained of abdominal pain or jaundice.Conclusions The success of LC depends on early treatment and strict selection of patients.Intraoperative hemorrhage and bile duct injury can be avoided by sufficiently exposing the Calot's triangle and using the technique of flush-suction blunt dissection.Conversion to open surgery is necessary when LC is difficult.
