Abstract
Open cholecystectomy was the gold standard for the treatment of the stones in the gall bladder till laparoscopic cholecystectomy was introduced in 1985. It is generally accepted that laparoscopic cholecystectomy has lower morbidity and complication rates, and a faster postoperative recovery as compared to Open cholecystectomy. The objective is to compare the advantages and drawbacks of laparoscopic cholecystectomy as compared to Open cholecystectomy. The methods in dis study are Forty consenting patients diagnosed as calculus cholecystitis were randomly allocated to either laparoscopic cholecystectomy or open cholecystectomy. Various per- and post operative variables were studied in both groups. In results the study revealed that laparoscopic cholecystectomy requires longer duration of surgery, but is associated with less blood loss, less severe post-operative pain and shorter hospitalization period as compared to open cholecystectomy. In conclusion the study reveals that laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a cost-effective intervention for surgical management of calculus cholecystitis.
