Dear Mr Zargar Your patient should go for laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Although there are lots of advantages to laparoscopy, the procedure might not be right for some patients who have had previous upper abdominal surgical procedures or who've some pre-existing medical conditions. An intensive medical evaluation by your personal physician, in consultation with a surgeon trained in laparoscopy, can determine if laparoscopic gallbladder removal is an appropriate procedure for you. In a tiny number of patients the laparoscopic method can't be performed. Factors that may boost the possibility of choosing or converting towards the "open" procedure may include obesity, a history of prior abdominal surgery causing dense scarring, wherewithal to visualize organs or bleeding problems throughout the operation. The choice to perform the open procedure is really a judgment decision made by your surgeon either before or throughout the actual operation. When the surgeon feels that it is safest to transform the laparoscopic procedure to an open one, this is not a complication, but rather sound surgical judgment. The decision to become a wide open procedure is strictly based on patient safety. Gallbladder removal is among the most commonly performed surgical procedures on the planet. Today, gallbladder surgery is performed laparoscopically. The medical reputation for this process is Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy.. With regards M.K. Gupta |
