Abstract
Introduction: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy which is most widely practiced for symptomatic gallstones has gained tremendous popularity over the last three decades. A substantial amount of patients presenting with persisting symptoms after laparoscopic cholecystectomy warranted a study on these patients. Material and Methods: One hundreds cases in which laparoscopic cholecystectomy was done were followed up for a period of two years with emphasis on those patients who presented with persistent symptoms after the operation and were examined clinically and with relevant investigations. Results: Female to male ratio in the study was 4.3: 1. Sixteen patients presented with persistent symptoms after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. More than 50% of the cases were diagnosed with extrabiliary disorders while 31.25% of the patients were diagnosed with biliary tract disorders. Conclusion: Patients should be counselled about the disease and impact of laparoscopic cholecystectomy on the treatment of cholelithiasis. A careful planning and follow up of the patients following laparoscopic cholecystectomy should be done.
