| Abstract | ||
| INTRODUCTION: Gallstone disease constitutes a worldwide major health problem as it is responsible for 1.4 million visits and 750,000 cholecystectomies per year in the United States. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is the “Gold standard” for treatment of symptomatic gallstone diseaseand is one of the most common abdominal laparoscopic procedures worldwide.Intraoperative perforation of the gallbladder is among the common complications to be taken into consideration as bile or stone spillage could give rise to early or late postoperative complications. It has been reported to occur with a range of 10% - 36% in different studies. To avoid sequalae of GB perforation especially surgical site infection (SSI), several methods and devices have been used for gallbladder retrieval from the abdominal cavity following LC. No one method has been shown to be superior to another. AIM OF THE WORK: The aim of this randomized comparative study is to compare the surgical site infections and / or complications with and without the use of a powder-free surgical glove bag for gallbladder retrieval following iatrogenic gallbladder perforation during laparoscopic cholecystectomy for uncomplicated gallstone disease. | ||
