Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of participants with complications or open conversion to M-LC

    one year

Study Arms (2)

2-mm mini-instrument (M-LC)

NO INTERVENTION

M-LC is three-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy using a 2-mm mini-instrument.

Procedure: 2- mini-instrument

conventional instrument(C-LC)

NO INTERVENTION

C-LC is conventional three port laparoscopic cholecystectomy

Interventions

The patient was positioned in the supine position with the head and right side up. Under general anesthesia, pneumoperitoneum (12 mmHg) was established after an 11-mm port was placed through 11-mm transumbilical incision by the open method. A 10-mm 0-degree laparoscope was inserted through this umbilical port. A 5-mm trocar was then placed in the epigastric area, and the surgeon determined through 'laparoscopic surgical view' whether the 2-mm mini-instrument could be used as the right subcostal port . If the 2-mm mini-instrument could be used as the right subcostal port, a 2-mm trocar was inserted . If not, a 5-mm trocar was inserted for the right subcostal port. Therefore, this point is the unique difference between the two groups.
