Abstract

Purpose: In this study, we aimed to evaluate surgical outcomes of cirrhotic patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy for gallstones in our clinic. Patients and Methods: From 2003-2009, 18 cirrhotic patients underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy for gallstones in our clinic. Investigated variables included age, gender, etiology of cirrhosis, Child-Pugh score, MELD score, ASA score, associated medical conditions, biliary pathology, preoperative laboratory parameters, operating time, conversion, use of drain, postoperative complications, reoperation and length of hospital stay. Results: Thirteen patients (72.2%) were female and 5 (27.8%) were male. The median age was 61 years (range 34 - 80 years). Cirrhosis etiology was viral hepatitis in 5 patients, alcohol in 1, cryptogenic in 1, cardiogenic in 1, and in the ten remaining patients, liver cirrhosis could be identified only after intraoperative findings. Seventeen patients were classified as Child-Pugh A and one patient as Child- Pugh B. The median MELD score was 8 (range 6-16) and the median ASA score was 2 (range 1-3). The average operative time was 44 minutes (range 15-100 minutes). One patient required conversion to open surgery (5.6%). Drains were used in 11 patients (61.1%). Postoperative bleeding complications occured in two patients (11.1%). One patient was reoperated on for bleeding (5.6%). The median hospital stay was 2 days (range 1-7 days). The median follow-up period was 52 months (range 6-87 months). Conclusion: This study demonstrates that laparoscopic cholecystectomy can be performed with acceptable morbidity in compensated cirrhotic patients. However, these operations should be carried out in an experienced center for hepato-biliary surgery to obtain the best surgical outcomes.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmada safra kesesi taşı tanısıyla kliniğimizde laparoskopik kolesistektomi yapılan karaciğer sirozlu hastaların cerrahi tedavi sonuçlarını değerlendirme amaçlanmıştır. Hastalar ve Yöntem: 2003 ile 2009 yılları arasında, safra kesesi taşı tanısıyla kliniğimizde 18 karaciğer sirozlu hastaya laparoskopik kolesistektomi yapıldı. Hastalar yaş, cinsiyet, siroz etiyolojisi, Child-Pugh skoru, MELD skoru, ASA skoru, sistemik hastalıklar, biliyer patoloji, preoperatif laboratuvar parametreleri, ameliyat süresi, açık cerrahiye geçiş, dren kullanımı, postoperatif komplikasyonlar, reoperasyon ve hastanede kalış süresine göre incelendi. Bulgular: Hastaların 13'ü kadın (%72.2) ve 5'i erkek (%27.8) idi. Hastaların medyan yaşı 61 (34-80) idi. Siroz etiyolojisi 5 hastada viral hepatit, 1 hastada alkolik, 1 hastada kriptojenik, 1 hastada kardiyojenik idi ve kalan 10 hastada karaciğer sirozu ameliyat bulgularına göre tespit edilebildi. Child-Pugh sınıflamasına göre 17 hasta A evresinde ve 1 hasta B evresinde idi. Hastaların medyan MELD skoru 8 (6-16) ve ASA skoru 2 (1-3) idi. Hastaların medyan ameliyat süresi 44 dakika (15-100 dakika) idi. Bir hastada (%5.6) açık cerrahiye geçme kararı verildi. 11 hastada (%61) dren kullanıldı. Postoperatif dönemde 2 hastada kanama komplikasyonu gelişti (%11). Bir hasta (%5.6), kanama nedeniyle reoperasyona alındı. Hastaların medyan hastanede kalış süresi 2 gün (1-7 gün) idi. Hastaların postoperatif dönemde medyan takip süresi 52 ay (6-87 ay) idi. Sonuç: Bu çalışma, kompanze karaciğer sirozlu hastalarda laparoskopik kolesistektominin kabul edilebilir morbidite oranlarıyla yapılabileceğini göstermektedir. Ancak, bu ameliyatların hepato-biliyer cerrahide deneyimli bir merkezde yapılması en iyi cerrahi sonuçların alınması açısından oldukça önemlidir.
