Aim: To compare the outcomes in term of complication of Veress Needle Insertion (VNI) to Direct Trocar Insertion (DTI) for creation of pneumoperitoneum in laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Design: Randomized controlled trial Place and Duration of Study: The current analysis was conducted at Khawaja Muhammad Safdar Medical College Surgical Department, Allama Iqbal Memorial Hospital and Govt. Sardar Begum Teaching Hospital, Sialkot from September 27, 2017, to September 26, 2020. Methodology: A total of six hundred and eight (n=608) patients, having age 30 to 75 years planned for laparoscopic cholecystectomy were included in this study. Patients were randomly divided into two groups, Group A (Direct Trocar Insertion), Group B (Veress Needle Insertion). Both groups had age and sex matched males and female. All trocars and veress needle used were disposable, with a safety shield. The primary outcome of our study was to compare the complications to assess the safety levels, while total time taken by the procedure and mean time for laparoscopic entry were the secondary end points. The collected data was analyzed by using software SPSS version 22. Chi-square test was used to check the significance of variance. P-value less than 0.05 remained the statistically significant. Results: The complication rate in VNI group were significantly greater than the DTI group (p < 0.01), the duration of surgery between the two groups was not significantly different (p > 0.05), but we found statistically significant difference in mean laparoscope insertion time (DTI 3.4+ 1.4 versus VNI 4.8+ 0.7 minutes, p < 0.001). Conclusion: From the results of our study, it can be concluded that the direct trocar insertion is a safe alternative to veress needle insertion in laparoscopic cholecystectomy as it is associated with fewer complications.

Aim: To compare the number of attempts at creating pneumoperitoneum for laparoscopic cholecystectomy using direct trocar versus veress needle insertion techniques. Design: Randomized controlled trial Place and Duration of Study: Department of Surgery, Allama Iqbal Memorial Hospital Sialkot and Govt. Sardar Begum Teaching Hospital, Sialkot from 27th September 2017 to 26th September 2020. Methodology: Six hundred and eight patients of both male and female patients, having uncomplicated cholelithiasis were selected. All participants were randomized into two equal groups, Group A (direct trocarInsertion) and the Group B (veress needle insertion). All trocars and veress needle used were disposable, with a safety shield. All procedures were carried out by the single experienced surgeons and his team. Data was noted, regarding age, sex, body mass index (BMI) and the number of attempts to create the successful pneumoperitoneum. Results: The number of attempts to create successful pneumoperitoneum in DTI group was significantly feweras compared to VNI group (p=0.026) but we found no statisticallysignificant difference between age, gender, and body mass index. Conclusion: The direct trocar insertion is a safe alternative to veress needle insertion in laparoscopic cholecystectomy because it requires fewernumber of attempts for successful creation of pneumoperitoneum as compared to the veress needle. Key words: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy, Veress needle insertion, Direct trocar insertion, Pneumoperitoneum

Objectives: The aim of our study which is to compare total intravenousanesthesia with target controlled infusion using the drugs Propofol and remifenatnil with thetechniques of volatile induction maintenance anesthesia using sevoflurane and sufentanil inpatients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy procedure, at a tertiary care hospital inKarachi, Pakistan. Study Design: The type of study is a randomized control trial, conductedfor a period of 8 months Period: from June 2015 to January 2016 Setting: at a tertiary carehospital in Karachi Pakistan. Method: The patient population consisted of n=100 patientsbelonging to the ASA class I and II and undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy procedure atour institute. The patients were divided into two groups group A consisted of all those patientswho underwent total intravenous anesthesia and group B consisted of patients who underwentvolatile induction maintenance anesthesia. Appropriate blinding measures were taken for thosewho were involved in the post-operative care of the patients, and the patients themselves. Duringthe procedure routine monitoring was done, data was recorded in a pre-designed proforma.Patients were analyzed in the post-operative period for side effects and pain levels. Statisticalanalysis was done using SPSS version 23, a p value of less than 0.05 was considered to bestatistically significant. Results: The patient population consisted of n= 100 patients dividedinto two groups. No statistically significant difference was found between the demographicvariables of the patients of both groups (age, weight, baseline values of blood pressure, heartrate, time duration of surgery and anesthesia). The time for the loss of corneal reflex was longerin the group A (109 +/- 90) as compared to group B (45 +/- 10) having a p value of less than0.001. However the time for opening of the eyes and the duration of post anesthesia care unitwas shorter in group A (420 +/- 130 seconds for eye opening and 45 +/- 15 min for PACU) andin group B (484 +/- 116 seconds for eye opening and 53 +/- 25 mins for PACU) having p valuesof 0.006 (eye opening) and 0.017 (PACU) respectively. In group A n= 44 (88%) of the patientsrequired rescue analgesia, and in group B n= 36 (72%) of the patients required it, having a pvalue of 0.013 respectively. The need for the use of ephedrine and atropine in the pre and portoperative period was similar in both the groups. Conclusion: According to the results of ourstudy we found that each method of anesthesia has its own advantages and disadvantagesand the anesthetist present should weigh the risks and benefits for each patient individually,and use the most beneficial method of administration of anesthesia in the patient undergoinglaparoscopic cholecystectomy procedure, accordingly.

Background: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a gold standard for gall bladder stone surgery. The Aim and objective of study was to compare the total duration of surgery, intraoperative complication like bile leak from cystic duct stump, spillage of bile from gallbladder and post op pain and abdomen distension and jaundice.Methods: Study was carried out in dept. of gen Surgery, Govt medical college Kota in yr. 2015-16 in a total of 50 patients with cholelithiasis with cholecystitis. Patient were equally divided randomly into two groups (a) Harmonic scalpel group and (b) Titanium Clip and L hook group. All patients with medical comorbidities, Concomitant CBD calculi, cirrhosis and portal HT were excluded from study. Intraoperatively adhesions, bile spillage from GB and cystic duct stump noted Postoperatively complain like pain abdomen, Jaundice, and fever were noted. Duration of hospital stay was observed. All results were statistically analyzed using Chi square and ANOVA test.Results: Both groups were comparable on the basis of age and sex distribution, as no statistically difference was noted (P value 0.867 and 0.999 respectively). Intraoperative findings were adhesions 5 in clip group and 7 in harmonic group. Spillage from gall bladder was 2 in Clip group and 3 in harmonic group. Mean duration of surgery was 65.20 min in clip group and 63.68 in harmonic group with no statistically significant difference in both the group (P Value 0.727). Average duration of hospital stay was similar in both the groups with a mean of 2.6 days. Postoperative complication was fever, abdomen pain and distension were 3,1,1 were respectively in the clip group and 3,2,2 respectively in harmonic group with the P value of 0.999 which was statistically insignificant. No CBD injury was noted in any case. Conversion to open cholecystectomy was not done in any case. On 1week and 1 month follow up 2 cases in clip group and 1 in HS group had collection in gall bladder fossa and none at I month.Conclusions: Harmonic scalpel offers an effective, alternative and safe method to cystic duct division and Gallbladder dissection from liver bed.


Introduction: Since the laparoscopic cholecystectomy was introduced first in 1990, the 4-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy was the gold standard. The 4-port (lateral) is used to hold gallbladder fundus and observe Calot's triangle. It is discussed that the 4-port technique is not required in many patients. Therefore, this study aimed to make a comparison between 3-port and 4-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy methods in the treatment of gallstone disease. Methods: A double-blind clinical trial was performed on patients admitted to Imam Reza Hospital, Birjand, Iran. The patients with gallstone disease (n=60) were randomly assigned into the case (3-port) and control (4-port) groups using balanced block randomization and underwent 3- or 4-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Postoperative pain was measured by a visual analog scale four h after surgery. The amount of pain-killer, duration of surgery, as well as length of stay and scars were measured in this study. Data were analyzed statistically in SPSS software (version 18) through the Chi-square test and t-test. A p-value less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: The groups were compared in terms of demographic characteristics. There were 24 females (80%) and 6 males (20%) in the control group and 25 females (83.4%) and 5 males (16.7%) in the case group (P=0.739). Moreover, the mean ages of the control and case groups were 59.823±7.8 and 61.10±4.7, respectively, and there was no significant difference between the groups in this regard (P=0.348). Furthermore, length of operation (P=0.001) and analgesic consumption (P=0.001) in the 3-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy group were lower than those in the 4-port group; however, the hospital stay (P=0.896) was the same in both groups. Conclusions: The 3-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a safe, reliable, and cost-effective method in patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

AIM: Comparative analysis of post-operative pain between Single Incision Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy and conventional Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy. Method: Patients suffering from symptomatic cholelithasis were randomly subjected to Single Incision Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (SILC) and conventional four ports Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (cLC). Data analyzed included duration of surgery, post-operative pain, For assessment of post-operative pain numeric pain scale scoring system was used and pain scoring done at four hours, twelve hours and twenty-four hours post-operatively. Results: The study included fifty patients operated upon from June, 2014 to May, 2014. Twenty-five patients were subjected to SILC and rest of the twenty-five underwent cLC. Pre-operative characteristics of two groups were similar and there was no significant difference between two groups based on age, sex and Body Mass Index. Post-operative pain score was higher for cLC compared to SILC at four, twelve and twenty-four hours post-operatively. The mean pain score at four hours was 4.64 ± 1.89 for SILC versus 7.72 ± 0.84 for cLC (p-value < 0.0001). While the score at twelve and twenty-four hours were 2.96 ± 1.88 and 1.80 ± 1.44 for SILC compared to 5.08 ± 1.15 and 3.80 ± 1.11 for cLC respectively. Conclusion: SILC is superior to cLC compared to post-operative pain as per our study. Keywords: SILC, cLC, post-operative pain
