Abstract:Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of laparoscopic cholecystectomy for postoperative adhesions in patients.Methods This study is a retrospective study. 63 patients who underwent cholecystectomy from March 2015 to July 2020 were divided into control group (n = 32) and observation group (n = 31) according to different surgical methods. The control group received open cholecystectomy and the observation group received laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The clinical indexes, the level of inflammatory factors, complications and the incidence of intestinal adhesion were compared between the two groups. The correlation between inflammatory factors and postoperative adhesions was analyzed by Pearson Correlation Coefficient.Results The operation time, anal exhaust time, and bowel sound time in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group [(56.7 ± 8.3) min and (82.6 ± 9.4) min, (22.5 ± 2.3) h and (35.6 ± 4.3) h, (13.2 ± 5.7) h and (19.1 ± 6.8) h], and the postoperative pain score was significantly lower than that in the control group [(7.6 ± 0.3) and (9.2 ± 0.5)] (P < 0.05). Two days after operation, serum C-reaction protein (CRP) and procalcitonin (PCT) in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group [(11.3 ± 3.6) mg/L and (26.7 ± 6.5) mg/L, (5.5 ± 1.3) μg/L and (6.4 ± 2.5) μg/L] (P < 0.05). The incidence of complications in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (6.5% and 25.0%) (P < 0.05). 3 months after operation, the incidence of intestinal adhesions in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (12.9% and 28.1%) (P < 0.05). Postoperative CRP and PCT levels were significantly correlated with the incidence of intestinal adhesion.Conclusion Laparoscopic cholecystectomy can significantly improve the clinical indicators, and reduce the levels of inflammatory factors in patients, the incidence of complications and intestinal adhesions.
