Abstract
Objective To compare the effect of mini-incision cholecystectomy (MC) and laparoscopic cholecystectomy(LC). Methods Totally 168 patients with gallbladder disease were treated by cholecystectomy, they were divided into MC group (90 cases) and LC group(78 cases) using random digits table,and comparing the clinical effect between the two groups. Results The operating time was significantly shorter in MC group [(37.2 ± 12.3) win] than that in LC group [(51.6 ± 14.6) min](P<0.05). The length of stay and postoperative recovery time were (1.7 ± 1.1), (15.9 ± 3.2) d in MC group,(1.8 ± 0.9), (14.8 ± 4.9) d in LC group, there was no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05). Body mass index had no influence to the operating time and postoperative recovery time. Conclusions With not complexity cholecystolithiasis, compared with LC, MC had shorter operating time, but no significant difference in postoperative recovery time. The MC procedure also seems to be suitable for the obese patients. Key words: Laparotomy; Cholecystectomy,laparoscopic; Comparative study
