Objective: The study aimed to investigate the rate of conversion from laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) to open cholecystectomy (OC) in our population and determine the potential risk factors associated with it. Understanding these factors helps surgeons predict complex cases and plan surgeries, reducing patient risks and improving outcomes.
Methodology: A cross-sectional observational study was conducted from June 1, 2022, to May 31, 2023, at Hayatabad Medical Complex, Peshawar, on 349 patients undergoing elective LC.

We hypothesized that operative time would increase with the post-graduate year of assisting residents as they gain more autonomy in the operating room.

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.
