Comparison of various stress response after laparoscopic and open cholecystectomy

Dr Dhanya R Shaji, Dr Saptrishi Paul

Abstract :

 Surgical trauma by incision and dissection of tissue stimulates the body to respond proportionately to the extent of injury. This study was conducted to compare metabolic and inflammatory responses after laparoscopic and open cholecystectomy namely serum  cortisol and C–reactive protein levels before and after operation, as non–randomized controlled trial. It was found that metabolic responses like serum cortisol were significantly higher after open procedure 6 hours and 48 hours postoperatively. Similarly, inflammatory response indicator C–reactive protein was raised significantly higher 48 hours after open as compared to laparoscopic cholecystectomy. It was concluded that open cholecystectomy caused more tissue responses as compared to its laparoscopic alternative
