Objective To explore the protective measure and the complication of laparoscopic common bile duct primary closure surgery with self-releasing single-J tube. Methods The clinical data of 35 choledocholithiasis patients having underwent selective operation were retrospectively analyzed from January 2009 to November 2014. The operation was laparoscopic choledocholithotomy, a self-releasing single J-tube was placed in the common bile duct, and the common bile duct was primary closure. The postoperative complication was observed. Results All the patients were operated under laparoscope. The operative time was (120 ± 15) min, and the intraoperative bleeding was (50 ± 15) ml. The levels of diastase was normal or increased slightly 1 d after operation. There were no postoperative bile leakage, bleeding and incision infection. The diet was recovered 2-4 d after operation. Postoperative abdominal X-ray result showed that single-J tube position was good. Two-three weeks after operation, the single-J tube was discharged from the intestinal tract, without intestinal obstruction. The length of stay was (9.3 ± 1.8) d. Open operation with T tube drainage was performed in one case with the complication of stone residue and stenosis of common bile duct. Conclusions In laparoscopic common bile duct primary closure surgery, self-releasing single-J tube can provide security guarantees in patients with choledocholithiasis. Although there are some complications, it has less trauma and quicker recovery, and deserves further popularization and application.

Objective To evaluate the safety of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) for patients with hepatic cirrhosis. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 72 patients with hepatic cirrhosis (Child-Pugh’s grads A or B). The patients received LC between July 2002 and March 2007. Under general anesthesia, the operation was preformed with four trocars and an intra-abdominal pressure of 8 to 12 mm Hg. Results LC was completed in 71 of the patients (antegrade in 67 and retrograde in 4), 6 of them received subtotal cholecystectomy. One patient was converted to open procedure because of dense adhesion at the Calot triangle. The operation time was 35 to 105 minutes (mean, 51 minutes); blood loss ranged from 5 to 60 ml with a mean of 12 ml. The patients were discharged 3 to 11 days (mean, 5.6 days) after the operation and were followed up for 3 to 18 months (mean, 12 months). After the operation, 7 patients developed ascites, and 1 had hemorrhage at the puncture site. During the follow-up, all patients were free of biliary symptoms, no residual or recurrent liver stone was found. Conclusions LC is safe for patients with liver cirrhosis, and should be the first choice for Child-Pugh’s grads A or B patients. Proper preoperative preparation and intra-and postoperative treatments are critical for the surgical outcomes.
