ABSTRACT
In this study, the results of 350 patients underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy [LC], were compared with those of 420 patients on whom open cholecystectomy [OC] was performed, in Banha University Hospital. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy patients included cases presented as symptomatic chronic calcular cholecystitis [96.3%] and acute cholecystitis [3.7%], while OC patients included cases with both chronic [74%] and acute cholecystitis [18.6%] and common bile duct stones [7.4%]. The mean operative time was significantly longer in LC. This procedure was completed in 325 out of 350 patients, while converted to open in 25 patients [7.1%], with fewer complications in 20 patients [5.7%]. The mean postoperative stay was significantly shorter in LC. No mortality was reported in both groups, while the complication rate was 5.7% in LC and 9% in OC
