Background: Cholelithiasis is a common problem these days. Earlier it was considered the health problem of the female only. But now it is quite common in the males also. The prevalence of gallbladder stone disease (GBSD) in female to male is 3:1 in 18-65 years age group. In the developed countries GBSD is common and occur in 7% in male and 15% in female with an overall prevalence of 11%. Cholecystectomy is one of the most common operation carried out in general surgery.Methods: Our study was conducted on 60 patients divided in 2 groups of 30 each to compare post-operative complications between laparoscopic cholecystectomy and open cholecystectomy.Results: As per findings of the present study duration of pain, rate of complications and total hospital stay were significantly lower in laparoscopic group. There was early removal of drainage tube, early stitch removal in laparoscopic group.Conclusions: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy can be recommended as first choice operative treatment for patients with cholelithiasis as it provides better cosmetic results, lesser pain, early removal of drainage tube, lesser post-operative hospital stay and fewer incidence of surgical site infection. It should be an available option for all patients requiring elective cholecystectomy.

Background: Cholelithiasis is a major cause of morbidity among Indians with a female preponderance. Most of the cases of gallstones are asymptomatic. For a long time, open cholecystectomy (OC) used to be the surgical treatment for cholelithiasis. But with the advent of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) there has been a gradual shift in the treatment with most surgeons preferring LC over OC. Apart from the benefits of decreased hospital stay, lesser postoperative pain and earlier return to normal activity LC are also cosmetically better as compared to OC. Longer operative time and increased incidence of biliary leakage are some pitfalls of LC in initial phase of surgical practice.Methods: A prospective study of 100 patients was carried out in the department of surgery in IQ city medical college and Durgapur city hospital, Durgapur between January 2017 and August 2017 with the aim of comparing open cholecystectomy with laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The patients were randomly assigned into two groups. Group A consisted of patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery while Group B patients underwent open surgery for cholelithiasis.Results: Duration of surgery was longer in OC than LC (72.4min versus 44.7min.). Mean duration of post-operative pain was 18.3hrs in group A as compared to mean duration of 30.7hrs in group B patients. The mean period of post-operative hospital stay was 1.8 days in group A and 4.8 days in group B. Post-operative resumption of normal diet was possible in 2.1 days in OC while it took lesser time (1.2 days) in LC. The rate of surgical site infection was higher in OC as compared to LC.Conclusions: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy can be recommended as first choice operative treatment for patients with cholelithiasis as it provides better cosmetic results, lesser pain, lesser post-operative hospital stay and fewer incidence of surgical site infection.

Objective: To compare early versus delayed laparoscopic cholecystectomy in acute calculous cholecystitis in terms of mean operative time, hospital stay, conversion rate to open surgery and post-operative complications. Study Design: Quasi experimental study. Place and Duration of Study: Army Liver Transplant Unit, Department of Surgery, Pak-Emirates Military Hospital Rawalpindi, from Jul to Dec 2018. Methodology: A total of 170 patients (85 in each group) diagnosed as a case of acute calculous cholecystitis who met the sample selection criteria were included. Group A patients underwent early laparoscopic cholecystectomy within 72 hours of admission while group B patients underwent conservative management followed by delayed laparoscopic cholecystectomy after 6 weeks. All patients were followed for operative time, hospital stay, per-operative difficulties encountered and post-operative complications. Results: Group A had a mean operation time of 43.9 ± 11.1 minutes, while group B had a mean operation time of 45.8 ± 10.1 minutes (p=0.83). The mean duration of hospitalization was 2.8 ± 1.1 days in group A and 5.3 ± 0.8 days in group B (p<0.001). Complications were measured at a frequency of 14.1% in group A and 5.9% in group B (p=0.07). Conclusion: Early laparoscopic cholecystectomy is better than delayed laparoscopic cholecystectomy in acute calculous cholecystitis in terms of hospital stay and per-operative difficulties faced. The post-operative complications between the two groups are comparable.

Background: Conventional laparoscopic cholecystectomy is performed using four ports. With increasing surgeon experience, there is a trend towards performing it using three ports. The aim of this study was to compare the three-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy with the conventional four-port technique in terms of safety, benefits and feasibility in a teaching hospital and private hospital setups.Materials & Methods: A retrospective review of medical records was performed on patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy at KIST Medical College and Teaching Hospital and Om Hospital & Research Center P. Ltd by a single laparoscopic surgeon. The review included demographics, operating time, analgesics requirement, post- operative hospital stay and intra-operative and post-operative complications. The data were tabulated in MS-Excel and statistically analyzed using SPSS statistics software, version 21.Results: There were 150 patients included in this study with 75 patients in each three and four-port groups. The demographics were comparable in both groups. 7.3% were diagnosed with acute calculous cholecystitis, 76.7% with chronic calculous cholecystitis and 3.3 % were gall bladder polyps. Four-port technique was generally required for the acute calculous cholecystitis which was statistically significant. The three-port group had a shorter mean operative time than the four-port group. There was no statistically significant difference in the doses of analgesics requirement and mean post-operative hospital stay in both groups. There were no major intra and post-operative complications in both groups. Four-port technique was commonly done in teaching hospital and the three-port in private hospital.Conclusions: There is significant number of laparoscopic cases being performed using three ports and we concluded that the three-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy is safe and feasible in experienced hand although there is no significant benefit. The study also showed an increasing use of four-port technique in the teaching institution which is better to clearly visualize the anatomy of the Calot’s triangle. So we recommend using the four-port technique for teaching the beginners and as the experience is gained, we can gradually shift to three-port technique and at the same time we shouldn’t hesitate to convert to four-port in difficult cases.JMMIHS.2018;4(1):66-71

Outpatient Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy was attempted in 98 patients selected from 266 patients presenting for elective cholecystectomy (37%). Two patients required admission following conversion to “open” Cholecystectomy, one patient was admitted for observation because of a technically difficult Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy and 16 patients were admitted because of refractory nausea and vomiting in the early post-operative period. Seventy-nine patients (81%) were able to be discharged home within 4 to 6 hours of surgery, with only one patient requiring readmission to hospital because of the onset of nausea and vomiting. There were no post-operative complications attributable to the outpatient experience. We believe this approach to elective gallbladder pathology can be safely accomplished in selected patients and will be increasingly utilized in the future.

BACKGROUNDABSTRACT Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (LC) is now the gold standard for surgical management of cholelithiasis around the world especially in developed countries, with the advantages of returning to work early, less postoperative pain, shorter hospital stay and better cosmesis. Here in the Philippines, LC has just started to pick its pace; surgeons are becoming more adept in the technique and patients have a better option with regards to the procedure to undergo.The aim of this study is to analyze our institution’s experience in laparoscopic cholecystectomy by evaluating the operative time, patients’ pain score post-operatively, hospital stay, intra-operative and post-operative complications (bleeding, bowel injury and bile duct injury) conversion rate and length of post op stay.METHODSA prospective analysis was performed on data collected during a 16-month period (January 2010 to May 2011) from 127 patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy. All of the surgeries were performed by consultants.RESULTSThe mean age was 44.7 (17-78) with whom 65.5% were females. Fifteen patients (13.6%) were operated in the acute setting. Three patients (2.7%) warranted an intraoperative cholangiogram while 5 (4.5%) underwent an Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography immediately prior to LC. The mean operating time was 89 (35-335 SD ±41.75) minutes. One patient had cystic duct leak which was managed with a drain and post LC ERCP. Difficulty in dissection was experienced in one case hence conversion to open cholecystectomy occurred (0.9%). Postoperatively, 101 (91.8%) received 0.5% Bupivacaine subcutaneously through the incision sites. Average VAS score was noted to be 3.05, 2.60, 2.20 at 6, 12 and 24 hours respectively. The mean post operative stay after the procedure was 36.22 (10-189 SD ±25.01) hours. No wound infection nor early incisional hernia was noted after 1 week of follow up.CONCLUSIONWith the early series of cases, it can be inferred that laparoscopic cholecystectomy is feasible and is performed safely in our institution.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to assess the safety of sacrohystcopxy by determining intraoperative and post-operative complications and its effectiveness by pelvic organ prolapse recurrence on follow up. Study Design: Prospective study. Setting: Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics Unit-II DHQ Hospital PMC, Faisalabad. Period: Jan-2014 to Jan-2017. Material & Methods: Patients with uterovaginal prolapse, admitted through OPD were selected for abdominal sacrohysteropexy. Variables of study including duration of surgery, any intra-operative and post operative complications, need of intra operative blood transfusion, post operative hospital stay; recurrence of POP, number of pregnancies in 06 moths follow up were recorded. Results: During this study period, 319 patients were admitted with uterovaginal prolapse. 32 (10.03%) cases were selected for abdominal sacrohysteropexy. In these 32 patients, 03 (9.37%) were <30years of age, 21(65.62%) were between 30-35 years and 8 (25%) were between 35-40 years of age. About 2(6.25%) were unmarried, while 30(93.7%) were married. In these married women 14(43.75%) were multiparas, another 14(43.75%) were para 1 or 2, while 4(12.5%) were para 3 or more. Duration of surgery was 40-45 minutes in 31(96.87%) patients. In 28(87.5%) cases per operative blood loss was <150ml while in 4(12.5%) it was estimated to be >150ml but less than 300ml. Post operatively only 1(3.12%) case developed wound sepsis and it was the only one (3.12%) who was discharged on 7th post operative day, while rest 31(96.87%) were discharged on 3rd post operative day. No recurrence was noticed in 06 moths follow up, while 2(6.25%) patients became pregnant. Conclusion: Abdominal sacrohysteropexy is a safe and an effective treatment in terms of overall anatomical and functional outcome, complications, post operative recovery, length of hospital stay and sexual functioning, in women who desire uterine and hence fertility preservation.

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE: Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy is usual method for the treatment of gall bladder stone disease and is practiced all over the world due to many benefits like fasten the recovery time. Furthermore, it reduced the post-operative pain and period of hospital stay. To conduct Surgical Audit and evaluate safety of Laparoscopic cholecystectomy. METHODOLGY: This prospective study was conducted in a private hospital at Hyderabad during free camps of Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy. Four camps were arranged in 2016 - 2019. Total number of 190 patients  underwent Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy during the study period. The patient's age falls between 12–65 years. A detailed history, relevant investigation and Cardiac fitness were evaluated. All patients underwent four ports Lap-Chole. Data was collected assessed and audit was performed and safety was evaluated. RESULTS: Total 190 patients operated females 88.45% and males 11.55%. 115 (60.50%)were in  the range of 30-35 years followed by 55 (28.95%)patients in the range of 40-50 years.8 (4.20%) patients were converted to open cholecystectomy, 4 due to bleeding from liver bed, 3 patients due to difficult dissection in calots triangle and 1 due to Empyema of gall bladder.10 patients (5.50%) had Trocar site bleeding, 10 patients (5.50%) had gall bladder injury, in 4 cases had spillage of stones and 72 patients (38.50%) developed umbilical port site infection 1 patient develop port site hernia. No mortality was recorded in this study. CONCLUSION: Our Surgical Audit proves that Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy is a safe procedure on the basis of only 4.2% intra operative and 5.5% postoperative complications and gaining wide spread popularity among our population due to less pain, less hospital stay. We recommend other private hospitals to extent such services to our poor population with symptomatic cholelithiasis.

Background: Hysterectomy is a common surgery performed by gynecologist worldwide. It can be done either by vaginal, abdominal or laparoscopic route. Non decent vaginal hysterectomy (NDVH) is less invasive, less time consuming and scar less surgery. The blood loss during surgery, intra-operative and post-operative complications are less in NDVH compare to TAH (total abdominal hysterectomy). Aim and objective: to compare the clinical outcome between NDVH and TAH. Method: A hospital based prospective study was done at Nepalgunj medical collage Kolhapur between March 2018–March 2019, 60 cases fulfilling selection criteria were selected, 30 cases underwent NDVH next 30 cases underwent TAH. Outcome is measured on the basis of operating time, blood loss during surgery, hospital stay and post-operative complications. Result: The most common indication for hysterectomy was fibroid uterus in both the groups (NDVH and TAH). The operating time, blood loss, hospital stay and post-operative complications were less in NDVH as compare to TAH. Conclusion: NDVH is a choice of surgery over TAH for freely mobile uterus with benign pathology and uterus size less than twelve weeks and without adenexal pathology.
