ObjectiveTo evaluate the feasibility and surgical techniques of laparoscopic subtotal cholecystectomy (LSC) in treatment for patients with cholecystolithiasis combined with severe gallstone gallbladder inflammation, adhesion, or atrophy. MethodsThe clinical data of 83 patients with cholecystolithiasis combined with severe gallstone gallbladder inflammation, adhesion, or atrophy admitted to this hospital between January 2006 and April 2010 were analyzed retrospectively. ResultsEighty-one patients were performed LSC, 2 patients were converted to laparotomy. In which 39 patients with the part of wall residual of the fundus and (or) body of the gallbladder, 26 patients with residual of part of gallbladder neck, 18 patients with residual of part of gallbladder body and neck. Fifty-one cases were followed-up for 3 months to 4 years, there were 2 patients with the change like “mini gallbladder” by B ultrasound and no obviously clinical symptoms. There was no ostcholecystectomy syndrome in the patients with follow-up. ConclusionsLSC is a safe, effective, feasible procedure for severe gallstone gallbladder inflammation, adhesion, or atrophy, which can effectively prevent bile duct injury, bleeding, or other serious complications. While it can also reduce the rate of conversion to laparotomy.
