(2015) Herrera Maldonado, César Oswaldo; Villota Cardoso, Pablo Giovanni; Tenezaca Tacuri, Ángel Hipólito
Introduction: The conversion of laparoscopic cholecystectomy to conventional surgery occurs for different reasons which represent an increase in the hospital stay and morbidity (14). The conversion rate worldwide is 7-12% (20). Objective: To determine the frequency of laparoscopic conversion and the most frequent causes in patients with laparoscopic cholecystectomy at Hospital Paute, 2014. Materials and Methods: It is a descriptive study. The data analysis was performed using SPSS 22 program and it is presented in frequency tables, percentage, value of P = <0.05 Odd Ratio (OR) with confidence interval (CI) of 95%. Results: The prevalence of conversion is 19.5% with an average age of 39.54 +/- standard deviation (SD) of 16,297; by age group: 77.8%, it is between 20-60 years. The 16.1% are female and 3.4% male. The preoperative diagnosis was cholelithiasis (57.9%) and acute cholecystitis (31%). The postoperative diagnosis was cholelithiasis (51.7%) and acute cholecystitis (32.2%). The most frequent causes of conversion: 5.0% severe inflammation; adhesions 4.2% and anatomical identification difficulty 3.4%. The longer operating time of 60 minutes was 43.3%. The 37.9% was for females and 5.4% for males. With an OR = 1.042, it means that more than 60 minutes in females´ surgical time, has 1,042 times greater risk of conversion that patients with less surgical time of 60 minutes, but the p-value is not statistically significant.

Introduction: Abdominal ultrasound is the main diagnostic aid in the vesicular gallstones. The laparoscopic surgery is the surgical procedure of choice. Technical difficulties involve risks of intra- and postcholecystectomy complications. Objective: To determine the relationship of sonographic classification and surgical findings with technical problems for the prediction of difficult laparoscopic cholecystectomy and risk of perioperative complications. Materials and Methods: An observational, analytical, cross-sectional study was made in patients who were submitted to a laparoscopic surgery from June to September 2014, in the Homero Castanier Crespo Hospital in Azogues city by comparing proportions with p <0.05 as significant. Results: A total of 82 women (76.6%) and 25 men (23.4%) were studied. Their average age was 39.9 years with a SD of 14.74. Ultrasound diagnostic agreement and intraoperative findings was 82.2%. The adhesions to the gallbladder (77.6%), dissection of Calot's triangle (44.9%), dissection of the gallbladder bed (39.3%), they were the major difficulties. In the Braghetto classification, the grades IIA, IIB and III had higher percentage of difficulty. Conclusions: It was demonstrated that the technical difficulty increases progressively in IIA, IIB and III types from the Braghetto classification.
