Cholecystectomy :The surgical removal of the Gall Bladder

Cholecystectomy is the surgical removal of the gallbladder. A gall bladder is a pear shaped organ located just on the upper right side of the stomach just below the liver. The digestive fluid called bile, which is produced by the liver is collected and stored by the gall bladder.

Cholecystectomy is performed when there is a pain and block of flow of bile in the gall bladder. It is a very common surgical procedure which carries only a small risk of complications.

TheProcedure

Cholecystectomy is most commonly performed by minimally invasive techniques. The following are the steps of laparoscopic cholecystectomy:

• First the surgeon gives general anesthesia to the patient
• Then the surgeon makes four incisions around the umbilicus
• The surgeon then inserts four small narrow tubes through the incisions for the laparoscopic camera and instruments.
• The laparoscopic camera which is inserted through the small belly port provides the surgeon a magnified view of internal organs on a monitor.
• The surgeon then inserts long specially designed instruments through the other three ports helps the surgeon to seperate the gall bladder from its attachments to the bile duct and the liver.
• Finally, the surgeon removes the gall bladder through one of the ports from the abdomen and closes the incisions

Conditions Treated

Cholecystectomy is mostly performed to treat the following complications that affects the gall bladder:

• Cholecystitis: Inflammation of the gall bladder
• Cholelithiasis: Gall stones in the gall bladder
• Choledocholithiasis: Gall stones in the bile duct
• Cholangitis: Infection of Bile duct

Easing Uterus Removal with Laparoscopic Hysterectomy

A laparoscopic hysterectomy is an invasive surgical process to remove the uterus. This surgical process is recommended to the women patients who are unable to treat abnormal uterine bleeding or fibroids. In this process, a tiny incision is made in the belly button to insert a tiny camera. This camera helps doctor to watch the inside images on the screen and complete operation process. In the lower abdomen, 2-3 other small incision also made to monitor the process from different angles. Other specialized instruments are also inserted to help the removal process.

There are two types of laparoscopic hysterectomy. Laparoscopic supra-cervical hysterectomy keeps the cervix in place and Total laparoscopic hysterectomy removes the whole cervix and uterus. The operation of keeping cervix in place is little safer and faster. But if the patient have a history of cancerous changes in the uterus or cervix lining then it is advisable to remove whole uterus. In the other case, if the operation is performed for pelvic pain or endometriosis then it is advisable to remove cervix to reduce the chances of severe pain after the operation.

A laparoscopic hysterectomy has many advantages.

• It requires few small incisions
• Low risk of blood loss
• Less scarring
• Low post-operative pain
• An outpatient procedure
• Less recovery period around 1-2 weeks
• Low level of infection
• No greater risk

It is mandatory for the doctor to check full medical history of the patient and complete all physical examinations, blood tests of the patient, before recommending surgery. Laparoscopic hysterectomy patients are expected to suffer less post-operative pain in comparison to traditional hysterectomy or cesarean section patients.
