Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Cholecystectomy is the most common procedure in biliary surgery which may be open or laparoscopic.laparoscopic cholecystectomy is widely accepted as the gold standard technique in both adults and children .over recent years there has been a significant increase in paediatric cholecystectomies alongside a rising incidence of childhood gall stones.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The majority of paediatric gallstones are related to haemolytic diseases such as hereditary spherocytosis. In recent decades, the incidence of gallstone disease in children has risen which may be related to the epidemic of paediatric obesity and improved survival of critically ill neonates who have received long-term total parenteral nutrition or correction of abnormalities resulting in increased incidence of cholelithiasis in the paediatric population such as short gut syndrome.The rate of conversion to open cholecystectomy ranges between 2% and 20%. Certain preoperative and operative factors can reliably predict the chances of conversion to the open procedure. Until recently large studies are lacking of assessment of the risk factors that my be responsible for conversion of laparoscopic cholecystectomy to open cholecystectomy . This study aims to assess preoperative and operative risk factors for conversion to open surgery .
