Abstract
BACKGROUND Gallstone disease, commonly referred to as cholelithiasis, is a prevalent medical condition that has substantial global implications. Due to its numerous benefits, such as cheaper costs and shorter hospital stays, laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) has replaced open surgery as the most often performed surgical method for treating a range of biliary problems in wealthy countries. Any medical procedure's long-term patient well-being must be assessed, starting with the quality of life (QoL), patient satisfaction, and postoperative healing. AIM The current study aims to evaluate patient satisfaction and QoL after undergoing LC in Al-Qunfudhah Governorate. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted targeting all patients who underwent LC in Al-Qunfudhah Governorate during the period from January to March 2024. The online survey was initiated by the study researchers after an intensive literature review and experts' consultation. The validated questionnaire was uploaded online using Google Forms and distributed electronically via social media apps. RESULTS The current study included records of 200 participants where the highest proportion falls within the 26 to 35 age group, comprising 57 individuals (28.5%). In terms of gender, males represent the majority, with 109 participants (54.5%). A total of 122 individuals (61.0%) reported being satisfied with their procedures. Conversely, 18 patients (9.0%) expressed dissatisfaction. The majority of participants under investigation expressed satisfaction with their overall QoL after undergoing LC, with 84 patients (42.0%) reporting satisfaction and 67 patients (33.5%) reporting being very satisfied. Additionally, only a small proportion of participants expressed dissatisfaction or very dissatisfaction Conclusion: In summary, the current study demonstrated high satisfaction with the LC treatment and highly reported QoL, which were mostly attributable to a number of factors such as the staff's cooperation, the lack of severe problems, and the sufficiency of the pre-surgery information supplied.

Zhao L, Li Z, Jin B, Hou N, Yang H. Safety and efficacy of low-dose esketamine in laparoscopic cholecystectomy: a prospective, double-blind randomized controlled trial. BMC Anesthesiol 2024; 24:47. [PMID: 38302944 PMCID: PMC10832235 DOI: 10.1186/s12871-024-02429-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2023] [Accepted: 01/24/2024] [Indexed: 02/03/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Esketamine, recognized for its analgesic, sedative, and anti-inflammatory qualities, is integral in multimodal analgesia. However, the potential opioid-sparing effects of intravenous esketamine, along with its impact on inflammatory responses, and cognitive function during laparoscopic surgery, remain unexplored. METHODS In this study, 90 patients scheduled for laparoscopic cholecystectomy were equally randomized into three groups: a normal saline control group (NS), a low-dose esketamine group (LS) and a high-dose esketamine group (HS). Subsequently, we monitored several parameters: hemodynamics, levels of stress and inflammatory responses, intraoperative doses of sufentanil, remifentanil, and propofol, and 24-hour postoperative sufentanil requirements. We also evaluated alterations in cognitive function, perioperative indicators, and potential adverse reactions among the three groups. RESULTS Compared to their levels 5 minutes prior to anesthesia (T0) and 30 minutes post-operation (T4), the NS group exhibited a more significant decrease in Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) and Heart Rate (HR) at various time intervals: 5 minutes after the skin incision (T1), 30 minutes post-incision (T2), and at the conclusion of the operation (T3), compared to the LS and HS groups(P < 0.05). Furthermore, the NS group exhibited a greater increase in levels of adrenaline (AD), noradrenaline (NE), endothelin (ET), C-reactive protein (CRP), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) at T1, T2, and T3, more so than the other two groups(P < 0.05). 24 hours after the surgery, patients in the LS group and HS group had significantly higher Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) scores than those in the NS group(P < 0.05). The LS and HS groups required lower doses of propofol, remifentanil, and sufentanil during surgery (P < 0.05), experienced shorter postoperative recovery times, and had lower incidences of nausea, vomiting, and respiratory depression compared to the NS group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The administration of low-dose esketamine has been shown to be safe, effective, and dependable in the context of laparoscopic gallbladder surgery. It has the capacity to stabilize hemodynamic responses, ameliorate both stress and inflammatory reactions from surgery, and hastens anesthesia recovery. Furthermore, it fosters the restoration of postoperative cognitive function. Notably, when combined with nalbuphine, it exhibits opioid-sparing effects, reducing postoperative adverse outcomes. TRIAL REGISTRATION The trial is registered with the China Clinical Trials Registry Registration Number: ChiCTR2300067596. Retrospectively registered (date of registration: 12/01/2023).

Abstract
To analyze the risk factors of complications after laparoscopic cholecystectomy in 478 patients in our hospital. METHODS The clinical data of 478 patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy in our hospital from March 2018 to September 2022 were collected, and the occurrence of postoperative complications and related risk factors were analyzed. RESULTS A total of 36 patients (7.53%) had complications, including 9 cases (1.88%) of abdominal hemorrhage, 8 cases (1.67%) of bile duct injury, and 19 cases (3.97%) of biliary fistula. Univariate analysis showed that adhesions of Calot triangle, anatomical variation and gallbladder wall thickness greater than 5 mm were associated with postoperative complications (all P < 0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that: Calot triangle adhesion (OR = 3.041, 95%CI = 1.422-6.507), anatomical variation (OR = 4.368, 95%CI = 1.764-10.813) and gallbladder wall thickening (OR = 2.827, 95%CI = 1.422-6.507). 95%CI = 1.274-6.275) were independent risk factors for complications after laparoscopic cholecystectomy (all P < 0.05). CONCLUSION In order to reduce the occurrence of postoperative complications, the risk factors of LC should be well understood and the preoperative preparation should be made.

Review of the Literature on Partial Resections of the Gallbladder, 1898-2022: The Outline of the Conception of Subtotal Cholecystectomy and a Suggestion to Use the Terms 'Subtotal Open-Tract Cholecystectomy' and 'Subtotal Closed-Tract Cholecystectomy'. J Clin Med 2023; 12:jcm12031230. [PMID: 36769878 PMCID: PMC9917859 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12031230] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2023] [Revised: 01/29/2023] [Accepted: 02/01/2023] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Current descriptions of the history of subtotal cholecystectomy require more details and accuracy. This study presented a narrative review of the articles on partial resections of the gallbladder published between 1898 and 2022. The Scale for the Assessment of Narrative Review Articles items guided the style and content of this paper. The systematic literature search yielded 165 publications. Of them, 27 were published between 1898 and 1984. The evolution of the partial resections of the gallbladder began in the last decade of the 19th century when Kehr and Mayo performed them. The technique of partial resection of the gallbladder leaving the hepatic wall in situ was well known in the 3rd and 4th decades of the 20th century. In 1931, Estes emphasised the term 'partial cholecystectomy'. In 1947, Morse and Barb introduced the term 'subtotal cholecystectomy'. Madding and Farrow popularised it in 1955-1959. Bornman and Terblanche revitalised it in 1985. This term became dominant in 2014. From a subtotal cholecystectomy technical execution perspective, it is either a single-stage (when it includes only the resectional component) or two-stage (when it also entails closure of the remnant of the gallbladder or cystic duct) operation. Recent papers on classifications of partial resections of the gallbladder indicate the extent of gallbladder resection. Subtotal cholecystectomy is an umbrella term for incomplete cholecystectomies. 'Subtotal open-tract cholecystectomy' and 'subtotal closed-tract cholecystectomy' are terms that characterise the type of completion of subtotal cholecystectomy.

Abstract
Introduction Subtotal cholecystectomy is a type of surgical bail-out procedure indicated when facing difficult laparoscopic cholecystectomy due to not reaching the critical view of safety, inadequate identification of the anatomical structures involved and/or risk of injury. Materials and methods A comprehensive search on PubMed were performed using the following Mesh terms: Subtotal cholecystectomy and Partial cholecystectomy. The PubMed databases were used to search for English-language reports related to Subtotal cholecystectomy between January 1, 1987, the date of the first published laparoscopic cholecystectomy, through January 2023. 41 studies were included. Results Subtotal cholecystectomy's incidence oscillates between 4.00% and 9.38%. Strasberg et al., divided subtotal cholecystectomies in "fenestrating" and "reconstituting" types based on if the remaining portion of the gallbladder was left open or closed. Subtotal cholecystectomy can sometimes be a challenging procedure and is associated to a high rate of complications such as biliary fistula, retained gallstones, subhepatic or subphrenic collections, among others. Conslusion Subtotal cholecystectomy is a safe alternative when facing difficult cholecystectomy in which the critical view of safety is not reached in order to avoid complications. A classification system should be implemented in surgical descriptions to compare the different surgical techniques employed. In order to avoid bile leakage and cholecystitis of the remnant gallbladder, the surgical technique must be performed skillfully. There is still a current lack of information on alternative techniques such as omental plugging or falciform patch in order to judge their utility. There needs to be further research on long-term complications such as malignancy of the remnant gallbladder.

Therapeutic Effect of Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy on Patients with Cholecystolithiasis Complicated with Chronic Cholecystitis and Postoperative Quality of Life. EVIDENCE-BASED COMPLEMENTARY AND ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE 2022; 2022:6813756. [PMID: 35911139 PMCID: PMC9334067 DOI: 10.1155/2022/6813756] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2022] [Revised: 06/03/2022] [Accepted: 06/21/2022] [Indexed: 12/07/2022]
Abstract
Objective To assess the treatment outcome and postoperative quality of life of patients with gallbladder stones and chronic cholecystitis after open cholecystectomy and laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Methods Between 2018 and 2020, 108 patients with gallbladder stones and chronic cholecystitis treated in our hospital were assessed for eligibility and randomly recruited. They were concurrently assigned (1 : 1) to receive either open cholecystectomy (control group) or laparoscopic cholecystectomy (study group). Outcome measures include surgical indices, inflammatory response, postoperative complications, and quality of life of patients. Results Laparoscopic cholecystectomy was associated with a shorter duration of surgery, intraoperative bleeding, time to first postoperative bowel movement, and postoperative hospital stay versus open cholecystectomy (P < 0.05). The levels of inflammatory factors of all eligible patients were comparable before cholecystectomy (P > 0.05). The patients given laparoscopic cholecystectomy showed lower levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin (IL)-6, and IL-8 versus those given open cholecystectomy (P < 0.05). Laparoscopic cholecystectomy resulted in a significantly lower incidence of complication (3.56%) versus open cholecystectomy (24.07%) (P < 0.05). The patients had significantly higher physical, psychological, and social function scores after laparoscopic cholecystectomy versus open cholecystectomy (P < 0.05). Conclusion Laparoscopic cholecystectomy provides better surgical results, mitigates the inflammatory response, lowers the incidence of complications, and improves the quality of life of patients versus open cholecystectomy, so it is worthy of application in clinical treatment.

Abstract
Background There is still no consensus regarding the role of laparoscopy in trauma cases. The purpose of this paper is to assess the value of diagnostic and therapeutic laparoscopy for patients with blunt or penetrating abdominal trauma by performing a systematic review and meta-analysis. Methods PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane library were systemically searched for the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and non-RCT comparative studies on effectiveness and safety of laparoscopy vs. laparotomy for the two authors independently performed the search, data extraction, and quality assessment. Results A total of 5,517 patients were enrolled in 23 eligible studies that were published in English. Meta-analysis results suggest that there is no significant difference in the incidence of missed injury and mortality between abdominal trauma patients receiving laparoscopy and those receiving laparotomy. Concerning postoperative complications, compared with patients in the open surgery group, those in the laparoscopy group are at a similar risk of intra-abdominal abscesses, thromboembolism, and ileus, while there is a decreased incidence of wound infection and pneumonia. Besides, patients in the laparoscopy group experience shorter hospitalization times and procedure times. For most outcomes, the sensitivity analysis yielded similar results to the primary analysis. Conclusion Laparoscopic surgery is a practical alternative to laparotomy for appropriate patients. The decision to perform laparoscopy should be based on the experience of the surgeon and the resources available.
