Background: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is the gold standard procedure for the gall stone diseases.Objective: This study aimed to assess the outcome of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) by determining the frequency of complications especially of bile duct injuries.Methodology: This retrospective study was conducted in the Department of surgery at Dhaka Medical College and Hospital, Dhaka, Bangladesh. The case files of all patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) from the year of 2013 to 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. The data were collected according to outcome measures, such as bile duct injury, morbidity, mortality and numbers of patients whose resections had to be converted from laparoscopic to open surgery.Results: During the three years a total number of 336 patients were underwent LC for chronic cholecystitis (CC) of which 22(6.5%) developed complications. Among those who developed complications, two patients had major bile duct injuries (0.4%); other 43(12.8%) patients had planned laparoscopic operations converted to open cholecystectomy intra-operatively. None of the patients in this study died as a result of LC.Conclusion: The two patients who had severe common bile duct injury in this study had major anatomical anomalies that were only recognized during surgery.Journal of Science Foundation 2017;15(1):14-19

Objective: To describe the surgical management of complex bile duct injuries in a specialized hepatopancreatobiliary unit. Design of the Study: It was a retrospective study. Study Settings: This study was carried out at Department of Anaesthesia and Hepatobiliary Unit, Sheikh Zayed Hospital Lahore from August 2017 to August 2019. Material and Methods: This retrospective study includes 80 patients of bile duct injury who underwent surgical correction of bile duct injury at specialized Hepatopancreatobiliary [HPB] and liver transplant department of Shaikh Zayed Hospital Lahore. All the subjects were evaluated by retrospectively. The information regarding primary operative procedure, drain placement, T-tube placement, presentation, hospital stay, Liver Function Tests [LFTs], level of biliary tract injury and type of surgical procedure obtained from patients records. Results of the Study: During the study period 80 patients – 65 females and 15 male were operated for bile duct injury. Mean age was 39.89 years range 21 to 65 years. Hospital stay ranges from 9 to 36 days with mean of 16.18 days. Patients underwent open cholecystectomy, 43.8% laparoscopic cholecystectomy and in 3 patients procedure was converted from laparoscopic to open. 52.5% patients underwent open cholecystectomy, 43.8 laparoscopic cholecystectomy and in 3 patient’s procedure was converted from laparoscopic to open. Conclusion: It is concluded that the correct long lasting and physiological method to treat injuries of bile duct is only surgical repair. Although, surgical repair of bile duct must be operated by skilled hepatopancreaticobiliary surgeons. A practical method which is selected appropriately and implemented successfully has surely improved surgical outcome without any problem faced during the operation.

Summary Laparoscopic cholecystectomy has become the standard procedure worldwide since the early 1990s for those patients whose gallbladder has to be removed as part of their underlying disease (NIH Consensus Statement 1992). The most common complication is iatrogenic bile duct injury, which has not improved significantly since the introduction of open laparoscopic cholecystectomy as compared with open cholecystectomy. The intraoperative injuries are mostly the result of a misinterpretation of anatomical structures due to severe inflammation or topographical variations. In order to minimize this risk, a number of improved operative techniques and behavioral measures have been formulated. Here, we present methodological and operative possibilities as well as techniques that in unclear situations can help to minimize the risk of intraoperative injuries of the biliary tract and the accompanying vascular system.

Objective: To find out frequency of bile duct injuries during cholecystectomyprocedures either open or laparoscopic. Study design: Prospective observational study. Placeand duration of study: This study was conducted at Surgical department, Liaquat UniversityHospital Jamshoro and Dow International Hospital Karachi, from July 2012 to December2013. Methodology: This study consisted of hundred patients. Patients were divided in twogroups. Group A for open cholecystectomy (OC) comprising of 50 patients who underwentelective open cholecystectomy. Group B for Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) comprisingof 50 patients who underwent elective Laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Inclusion criteria wereall patients diagnosed case of gallstones on the basis of ultrasound abdomen, any age andboth gender. Exclusion criteria included not willing for surgery, General anesthesia problem,pregnant ladies due to risk of foetal loss, carcinoma of gall bladder, stone in CBD and obstructivejaundice. Results: Out of 100 cases of gallstone were operated for either laparoscopic / opencholecystectmy. In open cholecystectomy group 20(40 % ) were male and 30(60 %) female.Ratio male: female ratio of 1:1.5. In laparoscopic cholecystectomy group 11(22 % ) were maleand 39(78 %) female with male: female ratio of 1:3.5. There was wide variation of age rangingfrom a minimum of 10 year to 70 year in both group. The mean age was 41.28+12.30 yearsfor OC group and 38.44+13.50 years for LC group (p 0.02). Common bile duct injury wereoccurred 2(4%) patients in laparoscopic cholecystectomy group while 3(6%) patients observedin open cholecystectomy group. Conclusions: We conclude that found bile duct injury 2(4%)patients in laparoscopic cholecystectomy group while 3(6%) patients observed in opencholecystectomy group

Introduction/Objective. Bile duct injuries represent a devastating and potentially life-threatening consequence of cholecystectomy. Although most cholecystectomies are currently performed laparoscopically, some complex cases require an open approach. The aim of this report is to present and analyze a single center experience regarding the management of these injuries. Methods. A retrospective study was conducted in a tertiary referral institution. During a 13-year period, we identified a total of 64 patients. Only patients requiring surgical reconstruction to repair bile duct injuries were included in the study. Patients were grouped according to the type of surgical approach, i.e. laparoscopic or open cholecystectomy. Results. Out of 64 patients with bile duct injuries, 38 (59.4%) incurred the injuries during open and 26 (40.6%) during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. No differences between the groups were observed concerning the time of bile duct injury diagnosis, type of injury, incidence of concomitant vascular and bile duct injuries, type of reconstruction procedure or complication rates after the primary intervention. The latency of bile duct injury management was found to differ between the study groups. In the open cholecystectomy group, bile duct injuries were managed significantly later than in the laparoscopic one. Conclusion. The results suggest that bile duct injuries occur with equal frequency after laparoscopic as well as open cholecystectomy. However, injuries are managed later after open than after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Tertiary centers have satisfactory outcomes of major bile duct injury reconstruction, with low rates of both morbidity and mortality.

Abstract Background Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is still fraught with bile duct injuries (BDI). A number of methods such as intra-operative cholangiography, use of indocyanine green (ICG) with infrared imaging, and the critical view of safety (CVS) have been suggested to ensure safer Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC).To these, we add posterior infundibular dissection as the initial operative maneuver during LC. Here, we report specific technical details of this approach developed over 30 years with no bile duct injuries and update our experience in 1402 LC. Methods In this manuscript, we present a detailed and illustrated description of a posterior infundibular dissection as the initial approach to laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). This technique developed after thirty years of experience with LC and have used it routinely over the past ten years with no bile duct injury. Results Between January of 2010 and December 2019, 1402 Laparoscopic cholecystectomies were performed using the posterior infundibular approach. Operations performed on elective basis constituted 80.3% (1122/1402) and 19.97% were emergent (280/1402). One intra-operative cholangiogram was performed after a posterior sectoral duct was identified. There was one conversion to open cholecystectomy due to bleeding. There were 4 bile leaks that were managed with endoscopic retrograde cholangio-pancreatography (ERCP). There were no bile duct injuries. Conclusion Adopting an initial posterior mobilization of the gallbladder infundibulum lessens the need for medial and cephalad dissection to the node of Lund, allowing for a safer laparoscopic cholecystectomy. In fact the safety of the technique comes from the initial dissection of the lateral border of the infundibulum. The risk of BDI can be reduced to null as was our experience. This approach does not preclude the use of other intra-operative maneuvers or methods.

Abstract​ Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is one of the most frequently performed surgical procedures worldwide. Iatrogenic bile duct injury (IBDI) is a serious complication of LC and has an incidence of 0.3 to 0.7%. Since it is associated with a significant and potentially lifelong morbidity as well as mortality, diagnosing IBDI as early as possible is of paramount importance. Management of bile duct injuries and prognosis of their surgical repair depend on the timing of its recognition, type and the extent of the injury. In this paper, we present a case of IBDI and attempt to discuss all its dimensions.

AbstractIatrogenic bile duct injuries (BDI) are still a challenging diagnostic and therapeutic problem. With the introduction of the laparoscopic technique for the treatment of cholecystolithiasis, the incidence of iatrogenic BDI increased.was a retrospective analysis of 69 patients treated at the department due to iatrogenic BDI in the years 2004-2014.. In this paper, we presented the results of a retrospective analysis of 69 patients treated at the Department due to iatrogenic BDI in the years 2004-2014. The data were analysed in terms of age, sex, type of biliary injury, clinical symptoms, the type of repair surgery, the time between the primary surgery and the BDI management, postoperative complications and duration of hospital stay.. 82.6% of BDI occurred during laparoscopic cholecystectomy, 8.7% occurred during open cholecystectomy, whereas 6 cases of BDI resulted from surgeries conducted for other indications. In order to assess the degree of BDI, Bismuth and Neuhaus classifications were used (for open and laparoscopic cholecystectomy respectively). 84.1% of patients with confirmed BDI, were transferred to the Department from other hospitals. The average time between the primary surgery and reoperation was 6.2 days (SD 4). The most common clinical symptom was biliary fistula observed in 78.3% of patients. In 28 patients, unsuccessful attempts to manage BDI were made prior to the admission to the Department in other centres. The repair procedure was mainly conducted by laparotomy (82.6%) and by the endoscopic approach (15.9%). Hepaticojejunostomy was the most common type of reconstruction following BDI (34.7%).. The increase in the rate of iatrogenic bile duct injury remains a challenging surgical problem. The management of BDI should be multidisciplinary treatment. Referring patients with both suspected and confirmed iatrogenic BDI to tertiary centres allows more effective treatment to be implemented.
