Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (5)

  • successful imaging of biliary system

    The anatomy of the extrahepatic bile ducts will be orally determined by the surgeon and the cases in which the oral description will coincide with the findings of cholangiography or not and where there were differences will be recorded.

    intra-operatively

  • operation duration

    minutes

    intra-operatively

  • intra-operative complications (bleeding, bile duct leakage, bile duct injury)

    presence or absence

    intra-operatively

  • applicability of the intra-operatively cholangiography

    yes or no

    intra-operatively

  • presence of bile duct stones (choledocholithiasis)

    yes or no

    intra-operatively

Secondary Outcomes (23)

  • gender

    pre-operatively

  • ASA score

    pre-operatively

  • age

    pre-operatively

  • body mass index

    pre-operatively

  • indication for laparoscopic cholecystectomy

    pre-operatively

  • +18 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (3)

Group A (standard cholangiography during surgery)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

All patients will undergo laparoscopic cholecystectomy. In this group standard cholangiography will be performed during surgery. Standard cholangiography will be performed with selective catheterization of the cystic duct and infusion of a radiolucent substance (non-ionic low osmotic iodine). The category includes drugs such as iohexol, iopamidol, iopromide, ioversol, iobitriol, iomeprol and iodixanol. In our study we will use Xenetix (iobitriol) and perform cholangiography with C-ARM recording.

Procedure: Indocyanine Green (ICG) administration

Group B (cholangiography with iv administration of icg prior to surgery)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

All patients will undergo laparoscopic cholecystectomy. In this group intravenous fluorescent cholangiography with indocyanine green will be given at a dose of 0.3 mg / mL / Kg 6 (six) hours before the start of surgery.The bile duct system will be recorded with a special camera (Karl Storz NIR / ICG).

Procedure: Indocyanine Green (ICG) administration

Group C (cholangiography with direct administration of icg to the bile duct system during surgery)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

All patients will undergo laparoscopic cholecystectomy. In the third group intraoperative cholangiography will be performed with direct administration of indocyanine green at a dose of 0.03 mg / ml / Kg to the bile duct cyst.

Procedure: Indocyanine Green (ICG) administration

Interventions

Patients will undergo laparoscopic cholecystectomy after they are randomly divided into 3 (three) groups. A total of 240 patients will be randomized into three groups of 80. In the first group (A) standard cholangiography will be performed. In group (B) intravenous fluorescent cholangiography with indocyanine green will be performed during surgery. ICG at a dose of 0.3 mg / mL / Kg 6 (six) hours prior to surgery will be administered. In the third group (C), intraoperative cholangiography will be performed with direct administration of indocyanine green at a dose of 0.03 mg / ml / Kg to the gallbladder.

Also known as: laparoscopic cholecystectomy, intra-operative cholangiography, c-arm recording, iodine solution administration
