Objective To explore the effect of gallbladder preserving surgery with laparoscope and choledochoscope.Methods The data of 60 cases of gallbladder preserving surgery with laparoscope and choledochoscope （observation group） and carried out with the same period 61 cases of small incision gallbladder preserving surgery （control group） between June 2008 to January 2013 were retrospective analyzed. Results All patients were followed up for （18±2.4）months （6-36 months）. The intraoperative blood loss， postoperative gallbladder hemorrhage rate， gallbladder dysfunctionrate， postoperative hospitalization time， stone recurrence rate， and reoperation rate in observation group were less orlower or shorter than the control group （P＜0.05）. The operative time and hospital costs in observation group were longeror higher than that of the control group （P＜0.05）. The rest of the observation index of two groups were no significant differences （P＞0.05）. Conclusions The gallbladder preserving surgery with laparoscope and choledochoscope is safeand feasible in technique level， and the short-term effect after operation is better. But the operation indications must be controlled strictly. The long-term efficacy needs further accumulation of cases and collect enough evidence to verify.
Objective To investigate the method of single umbilical port laparoscopic cholecystectomy and its feasibility. Methods The clinical data of 46 patients receiving single port umbilical laparoscopic cholecystectomy in this hospital from December 2008 to February 2009 were analyzed retrospectively. Results Fourty-six cases were operated successfully with ordinary laparoscopic instruments by single umbilical port laparoscopic cholecystectomy, all without drainage placed. Operative time was from 40 to 130 min, average 52.3 min; bleeding was from 10 to 150 ml, average 40.6 ml. No complications, such as biliary leakage, hemorrhage, umbilical hernia and infection of incisional wound happened. Postoperative abdominal wall scar was not obvious, 1-4 d hospitalization, from 2 weeks to 3 months following-up without disconnecting of incision. Conclusions The single umbilical port laparoscopic cholecystectomy is safe and feasible, with little abdominal wall scar, but difficult to perform, so it can be applied in hospitals with related conditions as improvements of laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Objective To summarize the experiences of “three holes and one hook in the end (TOE)” laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) in 1 260 cases and to investigate the operation procedures, technical points and the prevention of complications. Methods The data of 1 260 patients suffering from chronic calculous cholecystitis, acute calculous cholecystitis, atrophic cholecystitis, gallbladder polyps etc., who were admitted to this hospital and treated by TOE from March 1999 to March 2008 were included and analysed retrospectively in this study. Results One thousand two hundred and sixty of cases were cured, including 1 252 cases of succeeding LC (99.37%), conversions to open in 8 cases, no death, no bile duct injury, with intraoperative hemorrhage in 3 cases, umbilicus infection in 2 cases, gallbladder fossa hydrops in 3 cases, with operation time for 8-60 min (mean 38.5 min) and hospitalization for 3-7 d (mean 5 d ) after surgery. During the follow up of 1 002 cases for 1 to 7 years (mean 3.5 years), there were no complications such as bile fistula, bile duct stricture, residual stones of biliary duct, etc.. Conclusion TOE is worthy of application and promotion for the excellent effectiveness, few complications, rapid recovery and safety.
