Procedure Overview:

Small Incisions: Instead of a large incision, several small incisions are made in the abdomen.
Trocar Insertion: Trocars (hollow tubes) are inserted through the incisions, allowing access for a camera and surgical instruments.
Carbon Dioxide Insufflation: The abdomen is inflated with carbon dioxide to create space for the surgeon to work.
Visualization: A laparoscope (camera) is inserted through one of the trocars, providing a clear view of the gallbladder and surrounding structures on a monitor.

Gallbladder Removal:

Dissection: The surgeon carefully dissects the gallbladder from its attachments to the liver and bile duct.
Clipping and Cutting: The cystic duct and artery are clipped and cut, isolating the gallbladder.
Extraction: The detached gallbladder is then extracted through one of the small incisions.

Advantages of Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy:

Minimally Invasive: Smaller incisions result in less scarring and a quicker recovery.
Reduced Pain: Patients often experience less postoperative pain compared to traditional open surgery.
Shorter Hospital Stay: Most patients can go home on the same day or the day after the surgery.
Faster Recovery: Return to normal activities is generally faster compared to open surgery.

Indications:

Gallstones: The most common reason for gallbladder removal is the presence of gallstones.
Gallbladder Disease: Inflammation, infection, or other conditions affecting the gallbladder.
