Background |
We hypothesized that routine cholangiography during laparoscopic cholecystectomy may increase use of postoperative imaging and invasive testing.
Methods |
A retrospective review was performed of laparoscopic cholecystectomy cases at 6 community hospitals from 2017 through 2020. For surgeons performing routine vs selective cholangiography, we compared primary outcomes of operative time, 30-day complications, and postoperative imaging or procedures.
Results |
In total, 2359 laparoscopic cholecystectomy procedures were performed. Eighteen surgeons performed routine cholangiography (1125 cases), and 13 performed selective (1234 cases). Mean operative time was longer in the routine group (125.3 vs 98.7 min, P < .001). Between groups, 30-day complications were similar. Two common bile duct injuries were identified in the routine group. Postoperatively, the routine group underwent 2.5 times more imaging and invasive testing (P < .001).
Conclusions |
In community hospitals, laparoscopic cholecystectomy can be performed safely by surgeons using cholangiography routinely or selectively. Routine cholangiography resulted in more postoperative imaging and invasive testing.
