Aim: This study aims to evaluate the accuracy of ultrasonography (US) by comparing preoperative ultrasonographic findings with intraoperative observations during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC).

Materials And Methods: An observational analytical study was conducted at a tertiary hospital in Pune over two years and included 98 patients aged 20-80 with symptomatic cholelithiasis confirmed by US. Preoperative parameters assessed included gallstone number, gallbladder volume, wall thickness, and pericholecystic fluid.

Background: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is considered safe; however, it is not free from complications, such as bile duct injuries, bleeding, and infection of the surgical site.

Aims: The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of two prediction tools, the American College of Surgeons-National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (ACS-NSQIP) calculator and the surgical Apgar, in predicting post-cholecystectomy complications.

Methods: A cross-sectional, analytical, and comparative study was conducted on patients over 18 years old diagnosed with acute cholecystitis who underwent open or laparoscopic cholecystectomy at the Regional Teaching Hospital of Trujillo between 2015 and 2019.
