About this study

Official title: Unintentional Liver Cauterization Increases the Postoperative Pain After Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy: A Prospective Controlled Blinded Trial

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a common accepted surgical operation with lower morbidity all over the world for gallstone. Although it has low morbidity, postoperative pain is challenging situation like every other operation.

Read the detailed description

Postoperative pain after laparoscopic cholecystectomy has a three component: parietal, visceral and referring (shoulder) pain. Although intensities of them can be various, all of them affects the total pain together. Unintentional liver cauterization during laparoscopic cholecystectomy is unwanted, but sometimes unavoidable complication/process. However its effect on postoperative pain is not studied with detail in literature.
