Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
TechniqueLaparoscopic
Duration42 min
OutcomeSuccessful — discharged next day
Elective four-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy performed for symptomatic cholelithiasis confirmed by ultrasound. The critical view of safety was achieved prior to clipping the cystic duct and artery.
Intraoperative findings revealed a mildly inflamed gallbladder with multiple small stones. No bile duct injuries occurred. Estimated blood loss was minimal.
The patient tolerated the procedure well and was discharged the following morning on a standard post-operative regimen. Follow-up at two weeks showed complete recovery.
