Abstract
Background: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is the most commonly done, minimally invasive surgical procedure. Advanced energy sources, such as the harmonic scalpel, though expensive, may provide the advantage of shorter operating time by reducing smoke, bloodless dissection in the GB bed, lower risk of bleeding from the cystic artery due to secure vessel sealing, and avoiding the use of a larger number of titanium clips. Thus, a study was undertaken to compare the advantages of Two Clips Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (TCLC) over conventional laparoscopic cholecystectomy (CLC). Material & Methods: This prospective randomized study was conducted in the Department of Surgery IGMC, Shimla over a period of 1 year starting from 1st july 2019 to 30th june 2020. In this study 100 consecutive patients of symptomatic cholelithiasis confirmed by USG reporting were participated and randomized into 2 groups of 50 each. Group 1 patients underwent CLC and Group 2 patients underwent TCLC. Outcomes were measured in terms of operative time, intra operative stone spillage, intra operative blood loss, amount of CO2 used , post operative pain , conversion into open cholecystectomy and post operative complications. Results: In the present study among 100 patients, 19 were males and 81 were females. Among them,5 males and 45 females underwent CLC using electrocautery while 14 males and 36 females underwent TCLC.Mean age of males were 47.60 ± 3.36 years and females were 45.20 ± 15.82 years in CLC group and mean age of males were 45.36 ± 14.53 and females were 45.25 ± 15.97 in TCLC group. Present study showed that there was significant less Operative Time, Less Mean CO2 used, less Approx. Blood Loss, less Average pain score at 6 & 24 hours, less Average Length of hospital stay, less Intra Op. Stone spillage, less Use of Drain and Post op. Complications in TCLC as compared to CLC but there was no significant difference in Conversion to Open Cholecystectomy in both groups. Conclusion: Study concluded that TCLC had advantage over CLC in terms of operative time ,intra operative stone spillage , intra operative blood loss , amount of CO2 used , post operative pain & post operative complications
