Objective To explore the feasibility, operation method, and clinical application value of transumbilical single-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy (TUSP-LC) in treatment for children patients with benign gallbladder diseases. Methods The clinical data of 64 patients with benign gallbladder diseases from June 2009 to June 2011 were analyzed retrospectively. The patients were divided into TUSP-LC group (n=41) and convention three-port LC (CTP-LC group, n=23). The operative time, intraoperative blood loss, conversion to CTP-LC or laparotomy, operative complications, and hospital stay were recorded. The pains were registered at 3,6,12,24,48, and 72h postoperatively using visual analog scale (VAS). The patients were given satisfaction questionnaires with surgery at 6 time points (1 week, 2 weeks, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months) during a 12 months follow-up. Results A total of 64 pediatric LCs were performed successfully, no patients were converted to laparotomy. Except for one case of incision infection in the CTP-LC group 〔4.35%(1/23)〕 and one case of incision infection and one case of ecchymoma in the TUSP-LC group 〔4.88% (2/41)〕, no other complications such as bile duct injury, bile leakage, and incision hernia happened, the total complication rate was not significant difference in two groups (P>0.05). The operative time 〔(47.54±18.71) min versus(45.33±10.58) min〕, intraoperative blood loss 〔(18.56±13.34) ml versus (17.28±12.53) ml〕, and hospital stay 〔(1.67±0.36) d versus (1.81±0.38) d〕were not significant differences in two groups (P>0.05). The VAS score was not statisticly significant within 24h in two groups (P>0.05), but which in the TUSP-LC group was significantly lower than that in the CTP-LC group after 24h postoperatively (P<0.05). During a 12 months follow-up, the score of satisfaction in the TUSP-LC group was significantly higher than that in the CTP-LC group (P<0.05). Conclusions TUSP-LC is a safe and feasible method in the children patients with benign gallbladder diseases. It can be performed with the same technical exposure and outcomes as multi-port laparoscopy, with the added benefit of relieving postoperative pain and little no scarring.
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.
Objective To compare the clinical efficacy and safety of suturesuspension single hole laparoscopic cholecystectomy and traditional laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) in the treatment of gallbladder disease. Methods A total of 86 cases who got treatment in our hospital from February 2014 to July 2015 were collected prospectively, and then 86 cases were divided into 2 groups: 43 cases of control group underwent LC and 43 cases of experimental group underwent suturesuspension single hole laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Clinical efficacy and safety of the two groups were compared. Results ① Complication. No one suffered from bile duct injury, bile leakage, bile duct stricture, and umbilical hernia; but there were 2 cases suffered from complications in control group, including 1 case of abdominal pain and 1 case of bloating, and the morbidity was 4.65% (2/43). The morbidity of experimental group was 0, there was no significant difference between the 2 groups in the morbidity (P>0.05). During the follow-up period, 1 case suffered from long-term compilation in experimental group, and 2 cases in normal group, there was no significant difference in the long-term complication between the 2 groups (P>0.05). ② Operation and hospitalization. The blood loss and operation time in the experimental group were lower than those of the control group (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in the hospital stay and hospitalization cost between the 2 groups (P>0.05). ③ Postoperative electrolytes, liver and kidney function. The levels of Na+ and K+ in the experimental group were higher than those of the control group (P<0.05), and the levels of alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase were lower than those of control group (P<0.01), but there was no significant difference in the blood urea nitrogen and serum creatinine between the 2 groups (P>0.05). ④ The recovery of gastrointestinal function after surgery. The anal exhaust time and bowel sounds recovery time in experimental group were shorter than those of the control group (P<0.01). Conclusion Suturesus-pension single hole laparoscopic cholecystectomy in the treatment of gallbladder disease is safe, effective, and minimally invasive, and it has little disturbance on gastrointestinal function and liver function, which is worthy of clinical application.
ObjectiveTo study the relationship among cholecystectomy/gallbladder disease and bile reflux gastritis.MethodsA retrospective collection of 123 patients with bile reflux gastritis who were diagnosed as outpatients and hospitalized from January 2014 to February 2019 in Shengjing Hospital Affiliated to China Medical University, and 221 patients with non-biliary reflux gastritis at the same period were collected. According to the gallbladder status, the patients were divided into three groups: gallbladder disease, cholecystectomy, and gallbladder disease-free group. The relationship between gallbladder status and bile reflux gastritis was analyzed.ResultsAmong 123 patients with bile reflux gastritis, there were 22 cases (17.89%) with cholecystectomy and 26 cases (21.14%) with gallbladder disease; 221 cases of non-biliary reflux gastritis with cholecystectomy in 7 cases (3.17%) and gallbladder disease in 30 cases (13.57%). Univariate analysis showed that the gallbladder status was different between the bile reflux gastritis group and the non-biliary reflux gastritis group (χ2=21.089, P<0.001). The study showed that the gallbladder status was related to the occurrence of bile reflux gastritis. In contrast, patients with cholecystectomy and gallbladder disease had a higher risk of occurrence than those with no gallbladder disease (OR>1, P<0.012 5). Independent risk factors were considered by logistic multivariate regression analysis, including cholecystectomy, gallbladder disease, and age (P<0.05).ConclusionsThere is a correlation between cholecystectomy/gallbladder disease and bile reflux gastritis. Cholecystectomy and gallbladder disease may be the independent risk factors for bile reflux gastritis.
ObjectiveTo investigate the value of single incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy in the operation of benign diseases of the gallbladder in day surgery.MethodThe clinical data of 105 patients underwent the single incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy in the Day Operation Center of Zhengzhou Central Hospital of Zhengzhou University from March 2017 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed.ResultsThe single incision laparoscopic cholecystectomies were successfully performed in 105 patients with benign gallbladder diseases, including 65 cases of gallbladder stones, 26 cases of gallbladder polyps, 14 cases of gallbladder adenomyosis; 45 cases of men and 60 cases of women. In all cases, no incision was increased or no case was converted to laparotomy. No bile duct injury and intra-abdominal bleeding happened during the operation. All patients were discharged overnight (no more than 24 h) after the surgery and without delayed discharge and re-admission. The intraoperative blood loss was (10.3±3.5) mL, and the operation time was (55.0±25.5) min (from laparoscopy to gallbladder removal). The postoperative pain score was 1–2 and 0–1 on day 1 and on day 3 after the surgery, respectively. The postoperative incision cosmetic satisfaction score on month 6 after the operation was 4.5±0.5.ConclusionSingle incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy is safe and feasible for benign gallbladder disease during day surgery.
ObjectiveTo evaluate and analyze the clinical effect of ambulatory surgery applied to laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC).MethodsThe patients who underwent LC in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from June 2017 to February 2019 were collected, then were assigned to ambulatory surgery applied to LC group (ALC group) and conventional LC group (CLC group) according to the admission process mode. The patients in the ALC group received LC in the ambulatory ward and the patients in the CLC group received LC in the conventional ward. The preoperative waiting time, postoperative gastrointestinal recovery time, postoperative 6 h pain score, total hospitalization time, total hospitalization cost, patient satisfaction, and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups.ResultsA total of 433 patients underwent LC were included in this study, including 176 patients in the ALC group and 257 patients in the CLC group. There were no significant differences in the age, gender, type of gallbladder diseases, etc. between the two groups (P>0.05) except body mass index (P<0.05). There was no perioperative death in the two groups. One patient converted to laparotomy in the CLC group. Compared with the CLC group, the preoperative waiting time, postoperative gastrointestinal recovery time, and the total hospitalization time were shorter, the postoperative pain score was lower, the total hospitalization cost was less, and the satisfaction rate of patients was higher in the ALC group (P<0.05). There was 1 case of incision infection and 1 case of ascites in the operation area in the ALC group and CLC group, 1 case of fever in the ALC group and 3 cases of fever in the CLC group, respectively. There was no difference in the overall incidence of complications between the two groups (P>0.05). During the follow-up of 6 to 26 months, there was no readmission in both groups.ConclusionPatients who undergone LC based on ambulatory surgery mode recover quickly, and hospitalization cost is less, satisfaction rate is higher.
