“…Blunt trauma is another cause due to gallbladder injury, while extrahepatic bile duct injury contributed to few reported cases. Iatrogenic biliary injuries are feared complications, which were reported to occur in approximately 0.2%-0.3% during the open cholecystectomy era; its incidence has increased up to 0.9% following the introduction of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (13,14). The clinical picture is determined by the amount and rate of leak of bile into the abdominal cavity.…”

“…An indicative risk index indicating the possibility of a safe laparoscopic approach occurs in the presence of a low incidence of complications in the presence of a well-experienced operator. With good instrumentation in asintomatic patients (7,8,9,10). The risk index is in our opinion an important surgical training value because it requires a judgment of a real evaluation of the patient's comorbidity, suggesting the A) Contrast from the cystic duct.…”

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy has revolutionized the management of symptomatic gallstone disease since its introduction more than 20 years ago. It has gained widespread acceptance and is presently the gold standard for its management. This large study spanned over last 10 years and includes prospective data on 950 elective cases of laparoscopic cholecystectomy since 2002. All cases were operated personally by the author in different teaching hospitals of West Bengal. The following were looked into: profiles of the patients including major comorbidities requiring special precautions, the frequency of "difficult cholecystectomies," conversion rate, and operative and postoperative complications. The results showed that 75 % of the patients were females. The mean age of the female patients was 35 years (range15-75), while that of the male patients was 42 (range 18-68). Thirty-two patients had major comorbidities which required special precautions in the perioperative period. Twenty-six percent of the cases were categorized as "difficult," and 6 % of the cases had to be converted to open procedure. Major complications occurred in 11 patients of which five had to be converted. Fiftyfive patients had port-site infection due to atypical mycobacteria species of which majority occurred in the last 1 year of the study. All of them responded to second-line antitubercular medications.
