Objective: Introduction: The laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LCE) has become "gold standard" in treatment of the gallstone disease (GSD). However, introduction of LCE is accompanied by increase in the frequency of the bile duct injuries by 2-5 times, and transfer to the conversion offsets main advantages of the laparoscopic access. The aim:Тo improve the results of treatment of the patients with complicated course of the calculous cholecystitis by developing new methods of the laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: The results of surgical treatment of 420 patients with complicated course of the calculous cholecystitis were analyzed. The patients were divided intwo groups: group I (n = 210) where the standard four-trocar LCE was used and the group II (n = 210) where the developed methods of LCE were used. The average age made up 62 ± 6.0 years. Duration of disease made up from 1 month to 35 years.
Results: Results: The patients in group I LCE with complicated course of the acute cholecystitis was performed in 108 (25.7%) cases, chronic - in 102 (24.3%) cases. The patients in group II surgical intervention with complicated course of the acute cholecystitis was performed in 112 (26.7%) cases, chronic - in 98 (23.3%) cases. The patients of group I intraoperative injuries were observed in 12 (5.7%) cases and patients of group II - in 4 (1.9%) cases. The conversion was applied in 13 (6.2%) and in 4 (1.9%) cases, respectively. 2 (0.9%) patients died.
Conclusion: Conclusions: Introduction of the developed methods of LCE with complicated course of the calculous cholecystitis allows to reduce the frequency of intraoperative injuries by 3,8% and conversion rate - by 4,3% (p <0,001).

Background: As a debilitating and severe repercussion, the clinical and economic impact of Status epilepticus (SE) has not been thoroughly explored in various regions around the world, especially those with limited resources. Therefore, we aimed to identify the predictors of mortality and healthcare costs associated with SE in one tertiary care center with limited resources.
Methods: This retrospective single-center cohort study, carried out at Namazi Hospital, Shiraz, Iran, included 130 SE cases from March 21, 2021, to March 20, 2022.
