[Cholecystectomy performed by macro- and modern mini-laparotomy].
The conventional and laparoscopic cholecystectomy is as already every day utilized method, the operation procedure is well developed and the instruments used allow a reliable operation. The cholecystectomy performed by minilaparotomy is not yet a widespread procedure, since there is no established method and the instruments needed are not readily available, as well as the fact that special complications' rates is not yet well known. In order to further elaborate on the procedure and to demonstrate it's true value, 710 micro- and modern minilaparotomies, without exclusion or selection, were analyzed and the operation procedures were then summarized. The operations were completed with microlaparotomy (smaller than 4 cm incisions) in 643 cases (90.6%) with modern minilaparotomies (4.1-6 cm) in 61 cases (8.6%), with conventional mini (6.1-10 cm), and the incisions longer than 10 cm with conventional laparotomies in 3-3 instances (0.4-0.4%). We performed a complete cholecystectomy in 97.2%, a longer cystic stumps was left in 1.7%, subtotal and partial cholecystectomies in 0.7% and 0.3% respectively. In 69 of the cases (9.7%) simultaneous choledocholithiasis was discovered and resolved. 21.2% of the operations were termed as difficult. 2/3 of the intra and postoperative complications as well as early reoperations occured in cases where they followed a delayed operation of obstructive cholecystitis. One patient was lost (0.14%) due to non-surgical complication. These experiences show that cholecystectomy performed by micro and modern minilaparotomy is a realistic alternatives to the conventional and laparoscopic cholecystectomies.
