Abstract:
Objective To report our experience on laparoscopic cholecystectomy(LC) for elderly patients with cholecystitis and cardiopulmonary diseases.Methods Totally 225 elderly patients,who had undergone laparoscopic cholecystectomy in our hospital between January 2000 and June 2008,were retrospectively analyzed. Results Among the cases,LC were completed in 222 patients,the other 3 were converted to open surgery.No bile duct injury or biliary leakage occurred.After the operation,7 cases developed pulmonary infection,and 3 cases showed urinary infection,all of them were cured by antibiotics.Three cases suffered from cardiac ischemia without further damage.Conclusions With strict enrollment criteria,careful preoperative preparation,skillful operation,and intensive intra-and postoperative monitor,the LC is safe for elderly patients as a minimally invasive surgery.
