Brief Summary

Investigators want to assess the safety and efficacy of using abdominal drainage with not using any drainage, by estimating different outcomes after laparoscopic cholecystectomy for different reasons. Patients are seen at the Accident and Emergency Department or in the surgical wards at Aleppo University Hospital (AUH) over 12 months period.
