Abstract:
Objective To explore the feasibility of laparoscopic subtotal cholecystectomy without using titanium clips.Methods Laparoscopic subtotal cholecystectomy was performed without using titanium clips on 48 patients,who had serious adhesions at the Calot's triangle.The cystic duct was ligated by silk.Results The operations were completed uneventfully in all the cases without converting to open surgery.No massive hemorrhage or biliary leakage occurred during the operation.The patients were followed up for 3 months to 3 years(mean,18 months),during which no one developed abdominal pain,fever,or jaundice.Conclusions Laparoscopic subtotal cholecystectomy without using titanium clips is a safe and simple method for patients with serious adhesions at the Calot's triangle.The rate of postoperative complications is low.
