No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy has an increased incidence of extrahepatic biliary injury or bleeding. The common hepatic duct is on the medial border of the Calot triangle and at risk of injury. So, The investigators describe a new safety triangle with a more critical view of safety that is far from dangerous.

Retrospectively, from December 2019 until March 2023, the investigators will review the medical records for patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

The patients underwent cholecystectomy using a new technique in approaches to critical safety with recorded video and available follow up data were included.

The patients who had intraoperatively extensive gallbladder adhesion that interfere with the dissection in this area, improper visualization of the cystic duct, patients whose did not operate by this new technique and patients whose have not video record of laparoscopic cholecystectomy will excluded from the study.

Conditions

  • Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
  • Cholecystitis; Gallstone

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Madany triangle

After dissection of the proximal part of the gallbladder from its bed and scarification of the cystic artery and its branches, the traction applied to the Hartman pouch created an angle between the skeletonized cystic duct and the skeletonized posterior surface of the GB (Fig. 3). Also, this traction creates a dynamic triangle visualized from both the left and right sides according to the traction applied to the Hartman pouch to the right or left and the direction of the angled scope of the camera lens. From the left-side view, when right traction is applied to the Hartman pouch, it is bound laterally by the skeletonized proximal part of the cystic duct. Superiorly, it is bound by the posterior surface of the proximal part of the skeletonized gallbladder. It was bounded medially by an imaginary line between a point at the junction of the cystic duct with the CBD and a point at the anterior end of the dissected cystic plate (the Madany triangle)
