Summary

This is a retrospective cohort study designed to compare the outcomes of open surgery versus laparoscopic surgery in pediatric patients diagnosed with congenital choledochal cyst (CCC). The study includes children who underwent surgery at Guangdong Medical University Affiliated Hospital and Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center between January 1, 2010, and September 1, 2024. The aim of this study is to evaluate and compare the surgical outcomes, including surgery duration, intraoperative blood loss, hospital stay, and postoperative complications (e.g., bile leakage and intestinal obstruction), between the two surgical approaches. The data collected from the patient records will be analyzed to identify factors influencing surgical outcomes and to guide future treatment decisions for CCC in pediatric patients.
