The article reports 300 cases of laparoscopic cholecystectomy performed in Chengdu General Hospital of P.L.A. from October 1992 to August 1993. 16 of 300 were converted to open procedure. The number of postoperative complication cases was 12(4%).
ObjectiveTo introduce the experience in diagnosing and treating cholecystoenteric fistula (CEF) during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). MethodsFive cases with CEF in a series of 4 200 LC cases were reviewed.All of the five patients were proved to have CEF during operations.There were four cholecystoduodenal fistulas and one cholecystocolic fistula. One case with cholecystoduodenal fistula was treated by a suturing of the fistula under laparoscopy; 1 case was closed with titaniun and 2 cases were converted to laparotomy and fistulectomy.The patient with cholecystocolic fistula clips was treated by a suturing of the fistula under laparoscopy. ResultsAll the patients had got good recovery without complications.Conclusion CEF is a rare complication of cholelithiasis.If the diagnosis is made before operation, open operation might be a better choice.But if the diagnosis was made during the LC operation, suture closure or clip closure or stapler closure of CEF under laparoscope might be chosen for an experienced surgeon.
The aim of this study was to evaluate ultrasonic findings as predictor of potential operative difficulties and complications during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). From Auguest 1995 to December 1996 a total of 328 patients with symptomatic cholelithiasis (92 males, 236 females, mean age 45±17 years) were examined by ultrasonography (US) 1 to 3 days before LC. The US examination assessed six paramenters: (GB) volume of gallbladder thichness of GB wal position of neck of GB, stone mobility, maximal size of stone, and GB adhesions. On the basis of these US findings, a predictive judgment of technical difficulties was expressed as easy, difficult, and very difficult. Two hundred and twenty five patients presented with uncomplicated symptomatic cholelithiasis, and 103 had acute cholecystitis. The operation was predicted to be easy in 38% of cases, difficult in 48% and very difficult in 14% with a good correlation with the surgeon’s intraoperative judgment (Ｐ＜0.01). A significant association was found between stone mobility (Ｐ＜0.01), presence of adhesions (Ｐ＜0.01) and the difficulty of the procedure. Our results suggest that preoperative US is a useful screening test for patients undergoing LC, and it can help predict technical difficulties during LC.
ObjectiveTo compare the effect of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) combined with laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) in the treatment of cholecystolithiasis combined with choledocholithiasis in elderly patients and non-elderly patients. MethodsThe clinical data of 185 cases of cholecystolithiasis combined with choledocholithiasis who treated in our hospital from September 2010 to November 2015 were analyzed retrospectively. Then the 185 cases of holecystolithiasis combined with choledocholithiasis were divided into elderly patients group (n=74) and the non-elderly patients group (n=111). The operative time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative exhaust time, postoperative activity time, abdominal drainage time, postoperative hospital stay, total hospital stay, hospitalization cost, incidence of complications, unplanned analgesia, stone-free rate, rate of conversion to laparotomy, recurrence of stone, and mortality were compared between the two groups. Results① Intraoperative and postoperative indexes. No significant difference was noted in operative time and intraoperative blood loss (P > 0.050), but the postoperative exhaust time, postoperative activity time, abdominal drainage time, postoperative hospital stay, total hospital stay, hospitalization cost, and ratio of indwelling T tube of elderly patients group were all higher or longer than corresponding index of non-elderly patients group (P < 0.050). ② Postoperative complications and unplanned analgesia. There was no striking discrepancy in incidence of complications (including biliary leakage, peritonitis, haemorrhage, vomit, ectoralgia, and fever), and Clavien-Dindo grade (P > 0.050), except unplanned analgesia (P=0.007), the rate of unplanned analgesia in elderly patients group was higher than that of non-elderly patients group. ③Surgical effect. There was no significant difference in the stone-free rate, rate of conversion to laparotomy, and rate of recurrence of stone between the 2 groups (P > 0.050). ConclusionLC+LCBDE is also safe and effective in treatment of cholecystolithiasis combined with choledocholithiasis in elderly patients, it's worthy to be expanded and be used broadly.
As a new discipline, the cardiac surgery has a great development in the modern age, but still faces many problems and disputes. The emergence of the evidence-based medicine (EBM), which emphasizes the best evidence, and combines the doctor’s clinical experience to make the best judgment, gives the development of the cardiac surgery a new thinking. Four systematic reviews published in The Cochrane Library (Issue 3, 2004) have interprated the importance of EBM on how to resolve the actual problems in different field of the cardiac surgery.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of preoperative jaundice on the complications of laparoscopic cholecystectomy combined with intraoperative biliary stone removal in patients with common bile duct stones.MethodsA total of 104 patients with choledocholithiasis who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy combined with intraoperative biliary stone removal for common bile duct stones in Baishui County Hospital and No.215 Hospital of Shaanxi Nuclear Industry between January 2014 and February 2016 were enrolled and retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into the jaundice group (43 cases) and the jaundice-free control group (control group, 61 cases) according to the preoperative serum total bilirubin level. The differences in postoperative complication rates between the two groups were compared and risk factors affecting postoperative complications were explored.ResultsThe ALT and total bilirubin on the first day after operation in the jaundice group were higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). In addition, the hospital stay in the jaundice group was shorter than that of the control group (P<0.001). There was no significant difference in the incidence of total postoperative complication rate and the incidence of complications (included biliary leakage, ballistic hemorrhage, hyperthermia, incision complications, and other complications) between the two groups (P>0.05). There were no significant differences in Clavien-Dindo classification, comprehensive complication index (CCI), and ratio of CCI≥20 (P>0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that male and residual stones were independently associated with postoperative complications (P<0.05), but there was no statistical correlation between preoperative jaundice and postoperative complications (P>0.05).ConclusionPreoperative jaundice does not increase the risk of complications after acute laparoscopic surgery in patients with common bile duct stones.
ObjectiveTo investigate the importance of nursing observation and intervention for extrahepatic bile duct stones with gallbladder stones treated by electronic duodenoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) combined with laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). MethodsFrom July 2011 to February 2014, 157 patients with extrahepatic bile duct stones with gallbladder stones underwent EST and LC at the same time in our department. Combined with the surgery characteristics, we focused on the close observation and nursing of postoperative complications and drainage tubes for patients' timely recovery. ResultsOne patient with duodenal diverticulum papilla did not complete EST and LC surgery, which was then transformed to LC, bile duct incision and choledochoscopy with T tube drainage. All the remaining 156 patients completed endoscopic retrograde cholangio-pancreatography and LC with a completion rate of 99.36%. Under close observation and careful nursing care, this group of patients did not have duodenum perforation, bile leakage or other complications. No patient died. Seven to thirteen days after hospitalization, all the patients were cured and discharged from the hospital. ConclusionFor patients undergoing EST and LC at the same time, observation and timely intervention are very important in reducing serious complications, improving the quality of surgery, enhancing patients' comfort, and promoting postoperative recovery.
