Safety evaluation of laparoscopic cholecystectomy in patients with end-stage renal diseases / 中国微创外科杂志

Objective To evaluate the perioperative safety of laparoscopic cholecystectomy(LC) in patients with gallstones complicated with end-stage renal disease(ESRD). Methods Clinical data of 41 patients with gallstones accompanying ESRD treated with LC(ESRD Group) between May 1994 and May 2005 were analyzed retrospectively.Another 200 patients without ESRD(non-ESRD Group) receiving LC during the same period were randomly selected for comparison.Results The patients in the ESRD Group were older than those in the non-ESRD Group(49.8?11.9 years vs 44.2?12.3 years;t=2.655,P=0.008).There were significant differences between the ESRD Group and the non-ESRD Group in hemoglobin levels(76.3?11.7 g/L vs 120.1?8.4(g/L)) and platelet count [(141?36)?10~9/L vs(183?51)?10~9/L)] (t=22.905 and 6.226;P
