ABSTRACT
Background:
Shortages of metallic clips for cystic artery occlusion [CAO] in laparoscopic cholecystectomy [LC] under the conditions of blockade imposed on Iraq; threatened to stop the performance of LC, with all its negative consequences both on patients and surgeons. We thought of an alternative using monopolar diathermy coagulation [MDC] for occlusion of the cystic artery, to get on with laparoscopic surgery for the benefit of patients, surgeons, teaching and training programmes
