Complications during laparoscopic cholecystectomy performed due to acute cholecystitis

Abstract

Introduction: Today, laparoscopic cholecystectomy is essential in the treatment of acute cholecystitis, particularly in all patients who have applied in the early period and can tolerate surgery. Although the rates of complication and conversion to open surgery tend to decrease over time with the increasing experience, they are still among the important problems today. The most important complications of laparoscopic cholecystectomy in acute cholecystitis are biliary tract injuries and bleeding. In this article, we aimed to retrospectively present the complications that we encountered in laparoscopic cholecystectomy due to acute cholecystitis.
