EFFECTIVENESS MODERN MININVASIVE LAPAROSCOPIC CHOLECYSTECTOMY DURING THE COMPLICATION OF ACUTE CHOLECYSTITIS

Abstract

Laparoscopic surgical procedures can today be performed in almost all hospitals and the experiences of surgeons are increasing day by day. Cholecystectomy is especially one of the laparoscopic treatments that many surgical assistants firstly learn and apply. The validity of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is today indisputable in symptomatic gallbladder stones, other benign gallbladder diseases and early stage malignancy according to certain authors.[1–3] It is already the most common and widely applied laparoscopic intervention today.Acute cholecystitis is an inflammatory disease that generates urgent symptoms with exploration findings such as increased wall thickness of the gallbladder, edema and adherence of adjacent organs along with the omentum. Its most common cause is gallbladder stones. Acute cholecystitis is a serious condition and should be treated. Although laparoscopy was considered contraindicated in acute cholecystitis in the first years of laparoscopy, this opinion lost its validity in a short time.[3, 4]
