Lucker’s procedure was followed for laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The trocar insertion was selected accordingly. Chi square test and univariate regression curve were used as a test for significance. The probability value of less than 0.05 was considered significant. Result: A total of records of 300 patients were analyzed. All the patients were aged between 31-60 years. There was a male predominance in our study. The mean age group was 42.21+/-1.23 years. Majority of cases were of Chronic calculous cholecystitis (65%). There were 21% cases (n=63) of acute cholecystitis.
