Description

Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy, the minimally invasive removal of the gallbladder, is one of the most common and safe surgical procedures performed worldwide. At World Laparoscopy Hospital (WLH), this surgery is conducted with unmatched precision, using a structured, skin-to-skin approach that ensures patient safety, faster recovery, and minimal scarring. What is Skin to Skin Gallbladder Surgery? The term "Skin to Skin" refers to the complete surgical process — from the first skin incision to the final skin closure — offering a systematic, step-by-step technique that reduces complications and enhances surgical outcomes. This approach reflects WLH's commitment to surgical excellence, standardization, and patient-centered care. Step-by-Step Procedure for Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy at WLH 1. Patient Preparation The patient is given general anesthesia. The abdomen is cleaned, draped, and the surgical area is sterilized. The patient is positioned in a supine position with slight head-up and left tilt to facilitate access to the gallbladder. 2. Port Placement (Creating Access) A small incision is made near the navel for the insertion of the first trocar. Carbon dioxide gas is introduced to inflate the abdominal cavity, creating a working space. Additional ports are strategically placed under direct vision to accommodate the laparoscopic instruments. 3. Exposure of the Gallbladder The surgeon carefully lifts the gallbladder and exposes Calot’s Triangle, the area where the cystic duct and artery are located. Proper exposure is key to safe dissection. 4. Critical View of Safety WLH follows the gold-standard Critical View of Safety (CVS) technique to clearly identify the cystic duct and cystic artery. This step minimizes the risk of injury to the bile ducts or nearby structures. 5. Dissection and Clipping The cystic duct and artery are meticulously dissected, clipped using titanium clips, and then divided. The gallbladder is gently separated from the liver bed using electrocautery. 6. Gallbladder Removal Once detached, the gallbladder is placed inside a retrieval bag and extracted through the umbilical port. This minimizes contamination and maintains cosmetic results. 7. Irrigation and Inspection The surgical area is inspected for bleeding or bile leakage. Saline irrigation is performed to ensure a clean operative field. 8. Closure Carbon dioxide gas is released, and the ports are removed. The small skin incisions are closed with absorbable sutures or skin adhesive, leaving minimal scars.
