ABOUT THE PROCEDURE

Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure to remove the gallbladder, commonly performed to treat gallstones and associated complications such as inflammation or infection of the gallbladder (cholecystitis). During the procedure, a laparoscope—a thin tube with a camera—is inserted through small incisions in the abdomen to visualize and safely remove the gallbladder. The procedure offers benefits such as reduced postoperative pain, shorter hospital stays, quicker recovery times, and minimal scarring compared to open surgery.

 

ABOUT OUTCOMES

Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy is performed at Fortis Healthcare to ensure the highest standards of care. These include the rate of conversion to open surgery, incidence of postoperative complications such as bile duct injury or infection, duration of hospital stay, 30-day readmission rates, and in-hospital mortality. By benchmarking these parameters against global standards, we continuously strive to achieve superior patient outcomes and surgical excellence.
