Concomitant ERCP and laparoscopic cholecystectomy for management of gallstones complicated by obstructive jaundice versus two sessions procedure comparative study, Minia university hospital experience

“…According to the operative data, there was statistically significant difference between the two groups regarding number of ERCP and anesthesia sessions as it was significantly higher in group (B) (p<0.001). In contrast with our results the study of (Muhammedoğlu, 2019) [7] which was done on Of the 350 patients undergoing ERCP between 01.01.2015 and 31.12.2016, 31 patients with single-stage ERCP and LC were assigned to Group A and 25 patients with two-stage ERCP followed by LC within 6-8 weeks were assigned to Group B, reported that Total duration of anesthesia did not differ statistically significantly between the study groups (154.06 ± 53.76 min in our Group A series and 167.04 ± 75.17 min in our Group B series).…”

“…According to the Comparison of duration of hospital stay between the studied groups, our study showed that the mean duration of hospital stay in group (A) was 2.0± 1.78 days and 7.0± 3.53 days in group (B)s. Group (A) showed significant decrease in duration of hospital stay compared to group (B) (p<0.001). The study of (Vttoretto N et al, 2018 ) [13] support our results as it reported that the length of hospital stay appeared to be lowered in laparoendoscopic rendezvous group by aboutn three days, The study of (Muhammedoğlu, 2019) [7] supported our results as they reported that single-stage ERCP/LC is associated with shorter hospital stay. According to the Comparison of postoperative complications between the studied groups, our results showed that Two patients in group (A) had complications as they reported pancreatitis while 13 patients in group (B) showed postoperative complications.…”

“…ERCP is performed only in selected specialized centers because it is an invasive procedure that involves risks and requires teamwork, expertise and close monitoring. About 60-80% of patients with gallstones are asymptomatic (Muhammedoğlu, 2019) [7] .…”

“…Carefully the cystic duct and artery were dissected and identified in the Calot's triangle till the critical view was obtained. Figure [7],…”

A retrospective cohort study on the optimal interval between endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and laparoscopic cholecystectomy

“…Similarly, many studies found that the interval between ERCP and LC had no correlation with the length of LC procedures. [13,[16][17][18] The length of procedures varies based on the severity of diseases, medical equipment, and surgeons' experience. However, it also reflects the difficulty of procedures to a certain extent.…”
