Cholecystectomy for Mucocele of Gallbladder
This video demonstrates Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy for Mucocele of the Gallbladder. A mucocele of the gallbladder must be differentiated from other gallbladder conditions. Acute percutaneous drainage vs. cholecystectomy is usually the first line of treatment. This diagnosis must be suspected both by the surgeon and the radiologist. Gallbladder mucoceles (GBM) typically are treated by cholecystectomy. Medical management rarely has been reported and medical and surgical management have not been compared. In Laparoscopic management of the Mucocele of the Gallbladder, a small incision is made just below the rib cage on the right side of the abdomen. The liver is moved to expose the gallbladder. The vessels and cystic duct and artery to and from the gallbladder are cut and the gallbladder is removed. Mishra's knot is used to ligate the cystic duct.

Gallbladder mucocele is the distention of the gallbladder by an inappropriate accumulation of mucus. Decreased bile flow, decreased gallbladder motility, and altered absorption of water from the gallbladder lumen are predisposing factors to biliary sludge. Biliary sludge may be a precipitating factor for the development of canine biliary mucoceles.

A mucocele is simply the distension of a cavity due to accumulation of mucus. A gall bladder mucocele is a gall bladder that is filled with and distended by thick mucinous material that is typically dark green and rubbery in texture, composed of many layers of inspissated mucus. The accumulation of this material over time puts pressure on the gall bladder wall, and can cause pressure necrosis, which can lead to rupture, and bile peritonitis. A gall bladder mucocele may be sterile or infected. The mucus accumulation can also extend into the cystic duct, common bile duct, and hepatic ducts.

This video provides a valuable demonstration of Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy for Mucocele of the Gallbladder. It emphasizes the importance of distinguishing mucoceles from other gallbladder conditions and highlights the laparoscopic approach for effective treatment. The step-by-step procedure, including the incision, dissection, and ligation using Mishra's knot, is a helpful resource for surgical professionals.
