Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To assess the outcome of laparoscopic cholecystectomy for asymptomatic cholelithiasis before and after laparoscopic cholecystectomy using a specific quality of life instrument for gastrointestinal disorders in adults.MATERIALS and METHODS: The Gastrointestinal Quality of Life Index (GIQLI) was studied before and after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.RESULTS: Seventy one patients completed the GIQLI questionnaire both preoperatively and after a minimum postoperative follow-up of three months. Mean preoperative score was 126.8±14.07 out of a theoretical maximum score of 144. After three months, the score had significantly improved to 136.6±9.31, close to the range for the normal population. Not only items assessing gastrointestinal symptoms but also the domains of physical, social, and emotional function improved significantly. The most marked improvements were achieved in patients with the lowest preoperative scores.CONCLUSION: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy significantly improves the quality of life in patients with cholelithiasis who are asymptomatic or have nonspecific gastrointestinal symptoms that cannot be explained by another gastrointestinal pathology.

Özet

AMAÇ: Bu çalışmada asemptomatik kolelitiyazis olgularının ameliyat öncesi ve ameliyat sonrası hayat kalitesi değerlendirilmiştir.GEREÇ ve YÖNTEM: Hastaların ameliyat öncesi ve sonrası hayat kalitelerinin ölçümü gastrointestinal hayat kalitesi indeksi parametreleri kullanılarak belirlenmiştir.BULGULAR: Çalışmaya alınan 71 hasta ameliyat öncesi ve ameliyattan en az 3 ay sonra gastrointestinal hayat kalitesi indeksine göre sorgulanmıştır. Preoperatif dönemde ortalama skor 126.8±14.07, 3 ay sonra yapılan sorgulamada ise ortalama 136.6±9.31 olup normal populasyona yakın bir oranda saptanmıştır. (toplam skor 144). Gastrointestinal semptomlarının yanı sıra fiziksel, sosyal ve duygusal durumlarında da anlamlı düzelme gözlenmiştir. Düşük skorlu hastalarda bu iyileşme daha belirgindir.SONUÇ: Asemptomatik kolelitiyazisli hastalarda başka gastrointestinal patolojilerle açıklanamayan nonspesifik semptomların laparoskopik kolesistektomiyle iyileşme gösterdiği, hastaların hayat kalitelerinde anlamlı bir artış olduğu görülmektedir.
