Abstract (AI)
The incidence of biliary injury after laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) has shown a declining trend though it may still be twice that as with open cholecystectomy. Major biliary or vasculobiliary injury is associated with significant morbidity. As prevention is the best strategy, the concept of a culture of safe cholecystectomy has been recently introduced to educate surgeons and apprise them of basic tenets of safe performance of LC. Various aspects of safe cholecystectomy include: (
Key Findings
1
A safe-cholecystectomy culture is intended to educate surgeons and reinforce fundamental principles for performing laparoscopic cholecystectomy safely.
2
Biliary injury rates after laparoscopic cholecystectomy are declining but may remain twice those associated with open cholecystectomy.
3
Major biliary and vasculobiliary injuries after laparoscopic cholecystectomy cause substantial morbidity.
4
The abstract emphasizes prevention through universal adoption of a culture of safety in cholecystectomy.
