ABSTRACT
This investigation was carried out to evaluate the surgical wound outcome of patients who underwent cholecystectomy via Kocher incision, without perioneal closure. Consecutive patients (n= 129) were randomized either to have the peritonel closure (n= 66) or to have this step omitted (n= 63). Demographic data of the patients were similar in both groups. There were no significant differences in overall wound complication (p= 0.44), wound infection (p= 0.71), wound dehiscense (p= 0.96) and incisional hernia (p=0.95). This study provides strong evidence that the avoidance of the peritonel closure represents no adverse effect to the postoperative course of the patients
