Summary

complications after laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) regarding the choledochotomy technique have not been adequately studied in the literature. Therefore, this study aimed to retrospectively analyze and compare the impact of choledochotomy techniques during LCBDE among patients with choledocholithiasis during the early and late postoperative periods.

Detailed description

Background: complications after laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) regarding the choledochotomy technique have not been adequately studied in the literature. Therefore, this study aimed to retrospectively analyze and compare the impact of choledochotomy techniques during LCBDE among patients with choledocholithiasis during the early and late postoperative periods. Methods: from March 2014 to February 2018, 85 patients with choledocholithiasis (52 females and 33 males) were enrolled in this study. These patients were treated by LCBDE using various choledochotomy techniques, including scalpel or scissor (28 patients, 33%) in group I, using diathermy hook (35 patients, 41%) in group II, or using an ultrasonic device (22 patients, 26 %) in group III. Postoperative follow-up was done for assessment of all possible complications either early (within 3-6 months postoperatively), or late (2-6 years postoperatively) with meticulous observation and study of any relevant postoperative event.
