Preliminary Experience with Mini-Laparotomy Cholecystectomy in Jos.
Background: Different techniques have been described for removing a diseased gall bladder; however, cholecystectomy via the laparoscopic approach is currently regarded as the gold standard. Laparoscopic surgery services are not widely available in low- and middle-income countries and mini-laparotomy cholecystectomy may be a suitable alternative in such circumstances. This technique achieves cholecystectomy with a smaller incision and affords the advantages of the laparoscopic approach.
Objective: We report our experience over a 2-year period of 24 consecutive patients from two hospitals who underwent mini-laparotomy cholecystectomy to highlight our outcomes with the procedure.
Materials and methods: Data were obtained from the surgical theatre procedure register and medical records department of the hospital.
Results: During the study period, a total of 24 mini-laparotomy cholecystectomies were performed. Fourteen (58.3%) patients had a clinical diagnosis of calculous cholecystitis whereas 10 (41.7%) patients had symptomatic gallstones. There were four males (16.7%) and 20 females (83.3%) giving a male-to-female ratio of 1:5. The ages ranged from 18 to 68 years with a mean of 46.8 years (standard deviation (SD) = 12.7 years) and the mean operating time was 56.3 min (SD = 7.5 min) and ranged from 45 to 72 min. There was no conversion to the traditional large incision cholecystectomy. There were no intra-operative or post-operative complications and there was no mortality in the study. All the patients were discharged 48 h post-op.
Conclusion: Mini-laparotomy cholecystectomy offers the benefits of a minimally invasive procedure such as good cosmesis and short hospital stay. It has a relatively short operative time and a low incidence of complications and can be practised in a low-resource environment, where laparoscopic services are not available.
