Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Comparison between early and late laparoscopic cholecystectomy regarding Operation time
comparing the needed intra-operative time for laparoscopic cholecystectomy within and after 3 days of the onset of acute calcular cholecystitis , time will be measured by minutes
Comparison between early and late laparoscopic cholecystectomy regarding difficulty of operation
comparing the difficulty of laparoscopic cholecystectomy within and after 3 days of the onset of acute calculous cholecystitis, difficulty will be assessed by the rate of conversion to open cholecystectomy
comparison between early and late laparoscopic cholecystectomy regarding post operative pain
comparing between laparoscopic cholecystectomy within and after 3 days of the onset of acute cholecystitis regarding the presence and duration of post operative pain , pain will be measured by either the pain responded to regular NSAIDs or needed the administration of narcotics
Duration of postoperative hospital stay
comparing post-operative duration of hospital stay after laparoscopic cholecystectomy within and after 3 days of the onset of acute calcular cholecystitis ,duration will be measured by post operative days spent in the hospital

Secondary Outcome Measures

comparison between early and late laparoscopic cholecystectomy regarding post operative bile leakage
compare between laparoscopic cholecystectomy within and after 3 days of the onset of acute cholecystitis regarding the presence and amount of bile leakage
comparison between early and late laparoscopic cholecystectomy regarding post operative bleeding
compare between laparoscopic cholecystectomy within and after 3 days of the onset of acute cholecystitis regarding the presence and amount of postoperative bleeding
presence of any wound complication by examining the wound
comparison between early and late laparoscopic cholecystectomy concerning the presence and rate of wound infection by clinical examination post-operative

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This study was aimed to assess the outcome of laparoscopic cholecystectomy in acute calculous cholecystitis in terms of conversion rates, postoperative complications and length of hospital stay within and after 3 days of symptoms onset.
Detailed Description
The study aims to evaluate the safety and competency of laparoscopic cholecystectomy as surgical management of acute calculous cholecystitis within and after 72h of symptom onset. This study included 62 patients with acute calculous cholecystitis. Patients are divided into 2 study groups by the time of laparoscopic cholecystectomy comparing to the onset of symptoms and categorized as Group A & B. Immediate laparoscopic cholecystectomy is performed in Group A. while late laparoscopic cholecystectomy is performed in Group B. Patients in both groups monitored since admission, during operations, and along the postoperative period.
