Brief Summary
10 mm telescope is generally used in laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery. The use of a 10 mm telescope, although rare, causes the development of a trocar site hernia. İnvestigators thought that the incidence of trocar site hernia would decrease by using a 5 mm trocar, and investigators planned a study.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Rate of people developing trocar site hernia
Patients in both groups will undergo a physical examination every six months postoperatively. Those with suspected clinical hernia will be evaluated by ultrasonography. Whether the Trokar site hernia has developed will be recorded in the study registration forms. At the end of the third year, the controls will be completed, and the study will be terminated.
Three years has been designed from the completion of the operations.
Study Arms (2)
5 mm trocar group
ACTIVE COMPARATORA study with 107 patients was planned to compare the development of trocar site hernia.
10 mm trocar group
SHAM COMPARATORA study with 107 patients was planned to compare the development of trocar site hernia.
Interventions
Comparative study to investigate the effect of small-scale trocar use on the development of trocar site hernia in laparoscopic cholecystectomy
