Operative method choice and strategy of laparoscopic surgery therapy for gallbladder stones and common bile duct stones / 中华外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To explore the selection method and technology of laparoscopic surgery for gallbladder stones and common bile duct stones(GCBDS).@*Methods@#Data was collected from 318 in-patients of GCBDS at Department of General Surgery,Xuanwu Hospital of Capital Medical University from January 2013 to December 2017, and 298 in-patients acceptedlaparoscopic cholecystectomy(LC) and choledocholithotomy were recruited into final analysis.There were 138 males and 160 females,aged (60.4±18.6)years (range25-89 years).Retrospective analysis was done on method distribution,effect and safety of laproscopic surgery.Comparisons of basic characters and therapeutic effects were performed betweenlaparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) combined with primary closure and T tube drainage(TTD).@*Results@#Among therecruited in-patients,LC combined with common bile duct exploration was performed in 7 cases(2.3%, 7/298), LC combined with LCBDE was performed in 291 cases(97.7%,291/298).There were 133 cases (45.7%,133/291) who treated by LCBDE combined with TTD and 158 cases(54.3%,158/291) who treated by LCBDE combined with primary closure.In LCBDE combined with primary closure group,18 cases (11.4%,18/158)had intraoperative biliary manometry.All patients were followed up for 6 months at least and there no death.Postoperative complications rate was 10.0% (29/291).There were no significant differences in sex ratio,age,American Society of Anesthesiologists score,concomitant diseases and previous abdominal surgery history between LCBDE combined with primary closure and LCBDE combined with TTD group.Patients in LCBDE combined with primary closure group were accompanied with less acute cholangitis than TTD group (43.3% vs.76.7%; χ2=9.061, P=0.002).There were no significant differences in the diameter of common bile duct, the number of stones, hospitalization expenses and the incidence of complications between the two groups(all P>0.05).LCBDE combined with primary closure had shorter operation time ((134.2±28.3)minutes vs.(148.3±19.6)minutes; t=-1.830, P=0.011)and post-operative hospitalization time ((5.6±2.6)days vs. (7.2±2.4)days; t=-1.847,P=0.014).Bile duct leakage rate was higher in primary closure group(6.3% vs.0.8%, χ2=3.934, P=0.047) and TTD group had higher residual stones rate(6.8% vs.1.3%; χ2=6.008, P=0.014).@*Conclusion@#Strategy for treating GCBDS by laparoscopic surgery should be considered preoperative evaluation and intraoperative exploration to select appropriate minimally invasive surgical methods and techniques.
