Abstract:
Objective: To evaluate the feasibility, technical characters and benefits of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) in patients with cirrhotic portal hypertension(CPH). Methods:40 CPH patients, including 21 Child A class,26 Child B class and 3 Child C class were included. Data of the patients were collected and analyzed. Results: LC was successfully performed in 37 cases, and 3 patients were converted to open cholecystectomy (OC)for uncontrollled bleeding under laparoscopy and dense adhesion of Calot’s triangle. The convertion rate was 7.5%. The time of operation was (52.6? 15.2)min. The intraoperative blood loss was (75.5? 15.5)ml. The time to resume diet was (18.3?6.5)h. Seven postoperative complications occurred in 5 patients (13.2%). All patients discharged from hospital in (4.6?2.4) d after LC. Compared with LC in non cirrhotic patients, LC in patients with CPH has longer surgical time and hospital stay after operation, higher convertion rate and postoperative complication rate, more intraoperative blood loss. Conclusion: LC in patients with CPH has the advantages of minimal invasive surgery. It is feasible and relatively safe. But it has a higher convertion rate. Intraoperative blood loss is a prominent problem. The key step for a successful operation is to pay more attention to the perioperation managements and acquaint with the technical characters of this operation.
