Abstract: Background: The complications following laparoscopic cholecystectomy range from superficial surgical site infection to bile duct injury which may cause death. Hence, a meticulous approach can lead to successful LC. Method: 44 adult patients aged between 39 to 60 years of age with benign GB disease were operated on with LC; prior to surgery, a hematological and radiological evaluation was carried out. Histopathological study, in-traoperative, and postoperative complications were noted. Results: Histo-pathological studies included 34 (77.2%) chronic calculous cholecystitis, 3 (6.81%) chronic cal-culous cholecystitis with mucocele, 2 (4.54%) acute caliculus cholecystitis, 2 (4.54%) empyema G.B., 1 (2.2%) acute cholecystitis, 1 (1.2%) chronic cholecystitis with cystitis glandularis proliferans, and 1 (2.2%) chronic calculculous cholecystitis. Peri and postoperative complications were 4 (9%) trocar site bleeding, 4 (9%) liver bed injury, 3 (6.8%) bile leakage from GB, 2 (4.5%) bleeding from calots, and 1 (2.2%) port infection. Conclusion: LC is a safe and effective procedure for GB disease, but it requires an experienced surgeon to avoid morbidity and mortality for favorable results.
