Single-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy (SPLC) is an emerging technique and gaining increased attention by its superiority in cosmesis. A 1.5-cm vertical transumbilical incision is used for the single port, followed by the glove method. Indications for SPLC are the same as those for standard 4-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy, including patients with morbid obesity, previous upper abdominal surgery, severe acute cholecystitis, or suspected presence of common bile duct stones. Some randomized controlled trials have shown negative results of SPLC regarding operative time, wound-related complications, and postoperative pain. However, our retrospective analysis shows equivalent clinical outcomes among the two approaches in terms of postoperative pain and complications. In this context, SPLC can be a good option for gallbladder pathologies.

Coexistence of adenomyomatosis in a left-sided gallbladder: a case report.

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 And Objective: Robotic cholecystectomy has technical advantages of 3D visualization, enhanced instrument maneuverability, and increased precision. Less chance of conversion to open and biliary spillage. This study explores the utilization of the BORNS Simphoni Robotic System for robotic cholecystectomy.

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.
