Single Incision Laparoscopic Surgery (SILS) Versus Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

CholelithiasisBiliary Dyskinesia

Prospective randomized trial of single incision versus standard 4 port laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Hypothesis is that the operative time will be longer with single incision.

Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy vs Hybrid Natural Orifice Translumenal Surgery

Cholelithiasis

The purpose of the study is to determine the feasibility of cholecystectomy made by a transvaginal approach with a NOTES procedure (natural orifice translumenal endoscopic surgery).

Inmediate Feeding Tolerance in Acute Pancreatitis

Acute Pancreatitis Due to Gallstones

Objective: Determine tolerance of immediate oral intake (8 hours posterior to the beginning of treatment) against traditional management (early feeding at 48hr) in patients with mild acute pancreatitis of biliary origin. Double blind, randomized clinical trial

ERCP Plus Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy Versus Laparoscopic Common Bile Duct Exploration and Cholecystectomy...

Common Bile Duct Calculi

Around 10-18% of patients undergoing cholecystectomy for gallstones have common bile duct (CBD) stones. Currently, various procedures for the treatment of cholecystocholedocholithiasis are available including open cholecystectomy plus open common bile duct exploration (OC+OCBDE), laparoscopic cholecystectomy plus laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LC+LCBDE), may be trans-cystic or trans-choledochal, and laparoscopic cholecystectomy plus endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (LC+ERCP), which may be performed pre, at, or after LC.

Trial Comparing Pain in Single-incision Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy Versus Conventional Laparoscopic...

This study aims to evaluate post-operative pain in single-incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy (SILC) versus the conventional four port technique (LC). The investigators hypothesize that SILC is non-inferior in post-operative pain.

Early Versus Delayed Surgery for Gallstone Pancreatitis

Gallstone Pancreatitis

While there exists consensus among surgeons that patients with gallstone pancreatitis should undergo cholecystectomy to prevent recurrence, the precise timing of laparoscopic cholecystectomy for mild to moderate disease remains controversial. We hypothesize that laparoscopic cholecystectomy performed within 48 hours of admission, regardless of resolution of abdominal pain or abnormal laboratory values, will result in a shorter hospital stay.

Small-incision Open Cholecystectomy or Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy for Gallbladder Disease

Biliary Tract DiseasesGallbladder Diseases2 more

The trial compares minilaparotomy (small-incision) cholecystectomy with (key-hole) laparoscopic cholecystectomy by randomly allocating patients with gallbladder disease to two groups of surgeons, each group being trained for one of the two methods.

A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial of Lower Abdominal Three-port Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy...

Gallbladder StoneGallbladder Polyp

We have designed a new method which could be used in laparoscopic cholecy- stectomy.Account to this new method, the three incisions are all located on the lower abdominal, theoretically it could get more beautiful outlook and less stress response than traditional laparoscopic cholecystectomy(two of the three incisions located on upper abdomen) or single port laparoscopic cholecystectomy(one large incision located on umbilicus). We plan to conduct a randomized controlled trial to compare those there methods of laparoscopic cholecystectomy, in order to find out if there will be some advantages of this new method,such as in lowering the stress response,reducing impact on respiration, relieving post-operation pain and improving appearance.

Day Case Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy: Fundus First With Ultrasonic Dissection or Conventional Diathermy...

Cholecystolithiasis

Day case laparoscopic cholecystectomy can be made with conventional diathermy hook starting at triangle of Calot´s. Ultrasonic dissection starting from the gallbladder fundus is another option. The aim is to test the hypothesis that with ultrasonic dissection technique a better same day discharge and a shorter operative time can be achieved.

Minilaparoscopic Versus Conventional Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

CholelithiasisCholecystectomy

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is one of the most commonly performed operations in general surgery and is considered the standard of care for cholecystectomy for benign biliary disease. The laparoscopic approach to cholecystectomy, when compared to open surgery, is associated with less postoperative pain, quicker recovery time and an improved cosmetic result. Most commonly, laparoscopic cholecystectomy is performed using a 10-12mm port in the umbilicus with 3 additional ports consisting of either three 5mm ports, or a combination of two 5mm ports and one 10mm port. A new technique called minilaparoscopic (also referred to as needlescopic) surgery has recently emerged. Minilaparoscopic surgery replaces 5mm trocars with smaller 3mm trocars. Surgery using these smaller trocars is hypothesized to further reduce postoperative pain and recovery time as well as improve cosmetic results following laparoscopic surgery. Our goal is to compare these outcomes in a randomized trial comparing conventional to minilaparoscopic cholecystectomy.
