Abstract
Impairment of gastric emptying is well recognized in patients with diabetes mellitus. The aim of this study was to investigate the influencing factors for gastroparesis syndrome development after laparoscopic cholecystectomy in diabetic patients. This is a case-control study. Clinical data were collected retrospectively for 462 diabetic patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy from 2008 to 2013. We retrospectively analyzed the incidence of gastroparesis syndrome, clinical features, course of disease, and risk factors. The result showed strong positive relation between the diabetes duration, dose of insulin, patient age, other diabetes complications, and the incidence of gastroparesis. Gastroparesis is not uncommon post-laparoscopic cholecystectomy in diabetic patients.
