Predicting Conversion from Laparoscopic to Open Cholecystectomy: A Single Institution Retrospective Study
2018
Background
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is the standard surgical treatment for benign gallbladder disease. Nevertheless, conversion to open cholecystectomy (OC) is needed in some cases. The aim of this study is to calculate our institutional conversion rate and to identify the variables that are implicated in increasing the risk of conversion (LC–OC).
