Objective: The objective of this project is to offer for any Medical Education Institution an effective method of learning and developing the skills on this new surgery procedure that is necessary to improve the ability as consequence of technological innovations.
Methods: Simple and low cost materials were used for doing and carrying on the laparoscopic cholecystectomy on plastic mannequins as if it were done in vivo.
Results: The results were shown through illustrated photographs from the surgery procedures.
Conclusion: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy on plastic mannequins proved to be an alternative and a feasible method of training with Medical students.

Introduction: The coexistence of gallbladder (LSG) and adenomyomatosis (ADM) is extremely uncommon presenting a novel clinical dilemma that has not been previously documented. LSG refers to a anomaly where the gallbladder is situated to the left of the round ligament deviating from its usual position. This anomaly is rare, with reported occurrences ranging between 0.

Haemorrhagic cholecystitis is an uncommon cause of abdominal pain that can lead to significant morbidity and mortality if not promptly identified and treated. Known risk factors include trauma, anticoagulation use and cholelithiasis. In a patient with right upper quadrant pain after blunt trauma on anticoagulation without cholelithiasis, haemorrhagic acalculous cholecystitis should be considered in the differential diagnosis, as appeared to be the case in the patient we present here.

Background: Cholecystectomy often disrupts autonomic balance, impacting recovery. Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) may enhance ANS function and protect organs, but its role in cholecystectomy is unclear.
Methods: In this randomized controlled trial, 80 patients aged 45 to 65 years, scheduled for elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy, were randomly assigned to either the RIPC group or the control group.
