Long-term outcomes of laparoscopic cholecystectomy: a prospective piecewise linear regression analysis

Abstract: As shown by the findings, the HRQoL scores improved substantially by the sixth month after surgery and continued improving until they reached a 4- to 7-year threshold, indicating that change trends in HRQoL dimensions may vary. Although HRQoL scores were substantially improved after cholecystectomy, the improvements were associated with preoperative functional status and demographic characteristics.

“…Additionally, a recent study indicates that, compared to patients in early stages of a disease, patients in advanced stages not only tend to have more co-morbidities, they also tend to have less social support [2]. Notably, the CCI score in the current study was inversely related to QOL, which is consistent with the reported association between increased comorbidity and poor postcholecystectomy QOL [28][30].…”

“…Throughout this two-year follow-up study, the best single predictor of QOL subscale scores was preoperative functional status, which is consistent with reports that preoperative functional scores are the best predictors of postoperative QOL [2], [13]. Therefore, effective counseling is essential for apprising patients of expected post-surgery impairments.…”
