Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated the outcomes of the first 400 laparoscopic cholecystectomies performed at Akureyri Central Hospital in Iceland from July 1992 to February 2001.
- A total of 426 surgeries were done, with 400 laparoscopic procedures initiated; the conversion to open surgery occurred in 4% of cases, primarily for acute cholecystitis.
- Findings indicated that the average hospital stay post-laparoscopic surgery was significantly shorter (3.6 days) compared to open surgery (12.3 days), with a complication rate of 10% and an overall conclusion that laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a safe and effective procedure.
