Overview
Gallbladder removal, cholecystectomy, can be accomplished by the open surgery or a laparoscopic procedure. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the operation of choice in uncomplicated calculous cholecystitis. Open cholecystectomy may be performed in complicated cases or when trained/skilled personal for laparoscopic procedure is not available. Supportive measures are instituted in the meantime to prepare the patient for surgery. These measures include fluid resuscitation and antibiotics. Antibiotic regimens usually consist of a broad spectrum cephalosporin such as ceftriaxone and an antibacterial with good cover against anaerobic bacteria, such as metronidazole.

Lapascopic cholecystectomy
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure and has various indications in addition to the chronic cholecystitis. There are two main types of procedures used for the laparoscopic cholecystectomy ; Single-incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy (SILC) and conventional multiport laparoscopic cholecystectomy (CMLC).[3][4][5][6]
- Single-incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy (SILC)
- As compared to CMLC, SILC has the following features:
- Improved cosmetic results
- Decreased postoperative pain
- Increased operative time
- Increased intraoperative blood loss
- As compared to CMLC, SILC has the following features:
- Conventional multiport laparoscopic cholecystectomy (CMLC)
- As compared to SILC, CMLC has the following features:
- Decreased operative time
- Decreased intra-operative blood loss
- As compared to SILC, CMLC has the following features:
Indications
- Indications of laparoscopic cholecystitis:
- Cholecystitis (Acute/Chronic)
- Symptomatic cholelithiasis
- Biliary dyskinesia
- Acalculous cholecystitis
- Gallstone pancreatitis
- Gallbladder masses/polyps
Contraindications
- Contraindications of laparoscopic cholecystitis are:
- Inability to tolerate pneumoperitoneum or general anesthesia
- Uncorrectable coagulopathy
- Metastatic disease
Percutaneous cholecystostomy
Percutaneous cholecystostomy (PC) is an alternative to emergency cholecystectomy in complicated cases of high-risk patients.[7][8][9]
- The results showed that the mortality, morbidity and conversion rate were the same in PC and laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
- Older patients with increased comorbidities usually undergo cholecystectomy.
- If a patient is not a good surgical candidate at the time of presentation, cholecystectomy is preferred. Patients usually have biliary complications and cholecystectomy is required ultimately.
