Purpose: Our study is to demonstrate the feasibility and the safety of the Minilaparoscopic Cholecystectomy.
Material Of Study: During one year period 12 patients underwent 5mm Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy and 102 patientunderwent Mini-laparoscopic Cholecystectomy. In this study the exclusion criteria for surgery have been analyzed as well as the technical difficulties, the operation time, the duration of hospital stay, the post-surgery pain, the complications and the aesthetic results
Results: The operation time was 3 minutes longer for Mini-laparoscopic Cholecystectomy, the hospital stay was shorter in Mini-laparoscopic group. Patients that underwent 5mm Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy required a longer analgesic therapy. Complications occurred during the study were not related to the method. The aesthetic results were better in Minilaparoscopic Cholecystectomy due to lower scars length. Only in two cases we converted the planned Mini-laparoscopic Cholecystectomy in 5mm Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy.
Discussion: All the patients submitted to Mini-laparoscopic Cholecystectomy and 5mm Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy had the same therapeutic result. The Mini-laparoscopic Cholecystectomy gave advantages on post-surgery pain and recovery time.
Conclusions: In our experience the Mini-laparoscopic Cholecystectomy is a safe method that guarantees the same clinical results of conventional Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy. It shows some technical difficulties, but yet this surgery is to be recommended to expert surgeons.
Key Words: Gallbladder Polyps, Gallstone Disease, Mini-laparoscopic Cholecistecomy.

Background: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy, being a prevalent abdominal surgical procedure, has transitioned through various innovative stages aimed at reducing the procedure's invasiveness. These stages encompass Single-Incision Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (SILC), Mini Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (MLC), Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery (NOTES), and Robotic-Assisted Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (RALC). The purpose of this review is to trace the evolution of minimally invasive cholecystectomy techniques, assess their status, and identify emerging trends and challenges in the field.

Background: Mini-laparoscopic cholecystectomy (MLC) reduces abdominal wall injury and has the advantage of not altering the surgical principles of conventional laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Our team recently decided to extend the indications for mini-laparoscopy to pregnant women requiring cholecystectomy in the late second and third trimesters when significant uterine height is a potential difficulty.
Methods: From January 2022, all patients who underwent MLC after five months of pregnancy were included in the analysis.

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) reduces hospital length of stay, generating lower costs, less postoperative pain and an esthetic incision, with the disadvantage of converting to an open cholecystectomy. According to Collet, it has a conversion rate to open cholecystectomy of 4.8%.

Benign gallbladder diseases are common in surgery department, and the laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is the gold standard procedure for benign diseases of gallbladder. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is conventionally performed using four laparoscopic ports. However, the clinical application of different LCs is equivocal and there is no comprehensive comparison to explore which surgical options could benefit patients with benign gallbladder diseases.

Background: Since the first laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) in 1985, there has been much advancement in laparoscopic surgery in terms of reduction in number and size of ports. We report a new technique of performing mini laparoscopic cholecystectomy using only three ports, 5 mm each. The indications of this procedure include GB polyps, GB dyskinesia, microlithiasis, and idiopathic pancreatitis.
