Extent of Surgical Trauma in Open and Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
Extent of Surgical Trauma in Open and Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
The aim of this work is to evaluate which of the two types of operation (traditional/open and laparoscopic) has more impact on patients who were operated electively due to their chronic calculous cholecystitis.
The prospective, single center, randomized study includes 120 patients who are operated electively - 60 patients operated laparoscopically and 60 patients operated traditionally. Biohumoral and endocrine parameters of response to trauma are determined from 24 hour urine and blood: adrenalin, noradrenalin, metabolites of corticosteroid hormone - 17- hydroxyl and 17- keto steroid (HPLC method), C reactive protein and albumin, glycemia, creatine phosphokinase, lactate dehydrogenase, sedimentation of erythrocytes and serum concentration of potassium.
