A new strategy of minimally invasive surgery for cholecystolithiasis: calculi removal and gallbladder preservation.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:Cholecystolithiasis is a common disease. Cholecystectomy is the main treatment method but is associated with various complications in some patients. This study explores a novel, minimally invasive surgery for the removal of calculi and the preservation of the gallbladder using a laparoscope combined with the soft choledochoscope. METHOD:A retrospective analysis was conducted between January 2010 and December 2012 in 65 patients with cholecystolithiasis who underwent the minimally invasive surgery for calculi removal and gallbladder preservation. RESULTS:In 61 cases of gallstone removal, the gallbladder was preserved perfectly with no complications. The other 4 cases were switched to laparoscopic cholecystectomy because of tiny stones blocking the cystic duct or submucosal stones. The success rate was 93.8%. Follow-up included both clinical assessment and ultrasound examination every 6 months after the operation. The patients with preoperative symptoms were symptom-free, and gallbladder function was well preserved. The overall stone recurrence rate was 4.92% at a mean follow-up of 26 months (range 6-40). CONCLUSIONS:Using the laparoscope combined with the soft choledochoscope for gallbladder-preserving cholecystolithotomy can remove stones, preserve gallbladder function, and effectively avoid the various complications of cholecystectomy. In our follow-up, gallbladder function was not affected and the stone recurrence rate was quite low.
