  1. Open Cholecystectomy v/s Laparoscopic cholecystectomy Gallbladder Stone Surgery

  2. Introduction Gallstones are a common occurrence in northern India. However, this trend is now showing pan India presence probably because of migration and blending of cultures and lifestyle. As many as 16% and 29% of women above the age of 40-49 years and 50-59 years, respectively, had gall stones. For every patient with symptomatic gallstone disease there are many more with asymptomatic gallstones. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy has now replaced open cholecystectomy as the first-choice of treatment for gallbladder stone and inflammation of the gallbladder.

  3. Open Cholecystectomy Cholecystectomy is one of the most commonly performed abdominal surgical procedures. The laparoscopic approach is preferred due to documented physiologic, economic, and cosmetic benefits compared with the open approach. However, when laparoscopic cholecystectomy is not possible or cannot be completed safely, open cholecystectomy is indicated. Open cholecystectomy may also be performed as an integral part of another operation (eg, pancreaticoduodenectomy) or incidentally, if indicated, during another gastrointestinal operation (eg, colon resection).

  4. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy Cholecystectomy is one of the most commonly performed abdominal surgical procedures, and in developed countries many are performed laparoscopically. As an example, 90 percent of cholecystectomies in the United States are performed laparoscopically. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is considered the "gold standard" for the surgical treatment of gallstone disease. This procedure results in less postoperative pain, better cosmetics, and shorter hospital stays and disability from work than open cholecystectomy [2-8]. However, the overall serious complication rate in laparoscopic cholecystectomy remains higher than that seen in open cholecystectomy.

  5. Risks & Complications • The risk of complications is very low, however, potential risks might include: • Bleeding. • Infection. • Common bile duct injury. • Minor shoulder pain (from the carbon dioxide gas). • Bile leakage.

  6. Benefits • Less discomfort than regular surgery. • Shorter hospital stay, with a quicker recovery time compared to regular (open) surgery. • Smaller scars than regular surgery.
