Active clinical trials for "Cholecystolithiasis"

This study included group (A) (60 patients with liver cirrhosis and complaining of gall stone) in whom LC was done using traditional method (TM) by clipping both cystic duct and artery and dissection of gall bladder from liver bed by diathermy, and group (B) (60 patients with liver cirrhosis and complaining of gall stone) LC was done using harmonic scalpel (HS) closure and division of both cystic duct, artery and dissection of gall bladder from liver bed by harmonic scalpel. The Intraoperative and postoperative parameters were collected included duration of operation, postoperative pain, and complications.

Single Incision Laparoscopic Surgery (SILS) can be performed for different standard operations such as appendectomy and cholecystectomy. During laparoscopic cholecystectomy sometimes a cholangiography (marking the biliary tract with contrast agent) is necessary to identify and preserve relevant structures. The investigators want to evaluate feasibility of performing cholangiography during SILS cholecystectomy.

The goal of this observational study is to describe the various clinical, biological and radiological manifestations of LPAC syndrome, defined according to standard diagnostic criteria, or according to criteria extended to all symptomatic recurrent biliary lithiasis, and delineate the various possible evolutions. Participants will be followed for 5 years and the inclusion sites will collect the necessary data at least once a year as part of routine patient care. A quality of life self-questionnaire will be completed by participants during these visits.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate if cholecystectomy first (studied group) versus sequential common bile duct imaging/cholecystectomy (control group) result in a decrease of hospital stay, morbidity/mortality and costs in the management of patients with a suspicion of gallstone migration.

To assess the feasibility and success of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) directed biliary stone removal without use of fluoroscopy. Success for this study will be defined as the successful removal of all stones from the bile duct without the use of fluoroscopy. Fluoroscopy will only be used at the end of a presumed successful procedure to confirm that all stones are removed.

The trial aims to assess the value of drains in elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

To compare the technique of combined balloon sphincter dilation after an initial sphincterotomy and standard sphincterotomy in the endoscopic removal of large bile duct stones. The investigators hypothesize that combined balloon dilation and sphincterotomy allows for easier stone removal without added morbidities when compared to standard sphincterotomy.

To prospectively compare non-complex biliary stone clearance using fluoroscopy/radiation-free direct solitary cholangioscopy (DSC) utilizing the SpyGlass™ system with non-complex biliary stone clearance using standard endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERC).

Introduction: Obesity is an increasingly serious public health problem on a global level. Gallstones may become symptomatic after sleeve gastrectomy surgery. There is a debate regarding concomitant cholecystectomy during bariatric surgery. Aim of the study: This study analyzed outcomes of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) with and without concomitant laparoscopic cholecystectomy in morbid obese patients with gall bladder stones. Patients and methods: We conducted randomized clinical study on 222 patients. These patients were categorized into two equal groups (111 in each group) .Group A: underwent SG and concomitant laparoscopic cholecystectomy in morbid obese patient with evidence of gall bladder stone, Group B: SG only without concomitant LC inspite of evidence of gall bladder stone. This study was performed at single institution from January 1, 2016 to January 1, 2019.

in this study we compare the results of concomitant cholecystectomy with bariatric surgery versus delayed cholecystectomy for management of gallstone in obese patients
