Objective To study the clinical application value of aspirator and electrocautery in dissecting Calot′s triangle in laparoscopic cholecystectomy(LC).Methods All patients underwent LC were divided into group A and group B according the detaching way in the operation.The Calot′s triangle were detached by electrocautery as group A and by aspirator as group B.Operative time,hemorrhage and complication between two groups were compared.Results The mean operative time was(28.5?7.6) minutes in group A and(21.1?4.3) minutes in group B.The mean hemorrhage was(13.9?(4.7)) ml in group A and(8.8?2.5) ml in group B.The complication of bile duct injury occurred in 2 cases in group A.No complication was found during or after surgery in group B.All patients were cured.Conclusion Aspirator and electrocautery are both suitable for skeletonizing the cystic duct and cystic artery in LC.

Severe liver disease during pregnancy is uncommon in clinical practice. The most common cause of liver disease during pregnancy is liver dysfunction, with an overall prevalence rate of approximately 3%. Liver disease during pregnancy is classified into the liver diseases directly caused by pregnancy and those co-existing with pregnancy, i.e., pre-existing liver disease or occasional liver disease during pregnancy. A differential diagnosis of pre-existing and co-existing liver diseases may help to improve maternal and fetal outcome. During clinical diagnosis and selection of treatment and intervention measures, priority should be given to the potential impact on mother and fetus. This article introduces the latest research advances in the general information, pathogenesis, treatment, and pregnancy outcome of major liver diseases during pregnancy and elaborates on the risk of pregnancy and related coping measures for patients with pre-existing liver disease, so as to guide clinical diagnosis and treatment and patient management.
