Abstract

Background: This research aimed to determine, prior to surgery, what factors, if any, could help a surgeon anticipate a "difficult cholecystectomy" using either laparoscopic or open surgery. Consecutive patients undergoing cholecystectomies (both open and laparoscopic) for gallstone-related disorders are analysed to see which factors best predict the presence or absence of surgical complications. The goal of this study is to determine which clinical, laboratory, and radiographic criteria are most indicative of difficult dissection during cholecystectomy. To develop a scoring system prior to surgery that can accurately predict the result during the procedure.
