title: [Special complications of cholecystectomy performed by micro- and modern mini-laparotomy].
abstract: There is no data on the special complications of micro (less than 4 cm incision) and modern mini laparotomy cholecystectomies (4.1-6 cm incision). Out of 710 non selected patients, 643 micro laparotomy cholecystectomies were performed and 61 modern mini laparotomies due to choledocholithiasis. On three occasions, conventional mini (6.1-10 cm) laparotomy was performed and in another three, conventional laparotomy (over 10 cm incision) was executed. Intraoperative bleeding was encountered in 15 cases (2.1%) while accidental hepatic duct clipping occurred in one case (0.1%). Damage to the bile duct did not occur in any case reported. Postoperative bleeding was reported in 8 cases (1.1%) and delayed bile leakage was reported in 10 cases (1.4%). Special complications reported as a result of pathological alteration in the bile tract as follows: Intraoperative bleeding encountered during simple cholecystectomy-1% but cholecystectomy due to obstructive cholecystitis 3.8%, also caused by intraoperative bleeding. Delayed bile leakage in simple cholecystectomy was not observed, but after cholecystectomy for obstructive cholecystitis it encountered in 3.4%. Special complications resulted in four early reoperations (0.5%). Two other patients were re-operated within three weeks, independent of special complications. The percentage of both intra and postoperative complication was significantly higher in obstructive cholecystitis with an operative delay of 11 or more days.
