The difference between harmonic shear versus electrocautery in fundus-first laparoscopic cholecystectomy in acute cholecystitis: a comparative study

Abstract
Backgrounds Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) may be complicated by biliary duct injury in acute cholecystitis. In this study, we compared conventional electrocautery with the harmonic scalpel in patients undergoing LC for acute cholecystitis. Patients and methods The current study was carried out as a comparative study among 148 patients with acute calculary cholecystitis who were presented to th...
