Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy in the Second Trimester of Pregnancy
|
|
|
|
Abstract
|
|
|
Cholelithiasis and cholecytitis frequently necessitate cholecytectomy. Experience is increasing with laparoscopic cholecystectomy, a technique that avoids much of the morbidity, pain, prolonged hospital day, and -recovery complication associated
with
the traditional approach. And the safety of laparoscopic cholecystectomy was confirmed. Besides appendectomy, cholecystectomy is the second most common nonobstetric procedure performed in pregnant women. We have performed one case of a successful
laparoscopic cholecystectomy in the second trimester of pregnancy. Pregnancy was once a contraindication of laparoscopic operation, but no longer.
