[Micro and mini-cholecystectomies in the 21st century].

INTRODUCTION: Today the removal of the gallbladder is the safest, the most effective and widely recommended treatment for gallstone disease. Three essential methods are used for the removal of the gallbladder: standard open cholecystectomy, laparoscopic cholecystectomy and minicholecystectomy. Traditionally, the surgical community has resisted accepting minicholecystectomy. AIM: It is the Author's objective to illustrate the advantages and disadvantages of laparoscopic and microlaparotomy cholecystectomy. METHODS: The 2400 unselected patients who were operated with micro- and minicholecystectomy by them and a review of the relevant data of laparoscopic and standard minicholecystectomies permit some inferences to be made about the validity of microlaparotomy cholecystectomy. CONCLUSIONS: Main outcome measures regarding to mortality (0.12%), common bile duct injuries (0.08%), conversion an incision longer than 8 cm (0.29%) and syncronical choledocholithotomy (5.5%) as well as complete cholecystectomy (98.1%) indicate that micro- and minilaparotomy cholecystectomy with suitable technique and equipment are safe, less expensive choice either than the laparoscopic or the standard open cholecystectomy.

[Experiences with endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy].

PATIENTS AND METHOD: Thoracic sympathectomy using thoracoscopy was performed in 38 cases on 35 patients from January 01. 1996, till December 31. 2000. In 3 cases bilateral sympathectomy was carried out. The youngest patient was 18, the oldest was 76 years old, the average age was 42 years. The indications for surgery were Raynaud syndrome, causalgia, post-traumatic sympathetic dystrophy, thoracic outlet syndrome combined with vasospastic syndrome, Buerger syndrome, obliteration of digital arteries, embolism and hyperhidrosis. This method was chosen if conservative therapy was unsuccessful. Laparoscopic instruments are particularly suitable for minimal invasive interventions. RESULTS: Authors describe their operative technique whereby the postoperative pain and also the duration of hospitalisation can be reduced, and the cosmetic result can be improved. In two cases conversion was the only choice due to pleural adhesions. Pneumothorax occurred in two cases, haemothorax in one case and transient intercostal neuralgy was seen in 3 cases. In four cases sympathetic activity returned during the follow up. Ceasing the sympathetic innervation dilates the arterioles of the skin, and the temperature of the skin increases. During follow-up the complaints of the patients improved significantly, the progression became slower and clear improvement was found with instrumental investigations. CONCLUSION: This method can be recommended to every institute where the conditions for traditional laparoscopic surgery are given and staff is experienced in thoracotomy.

[The use of ROMICRO set in plastic surgery].

More than thousand plastic operations were performed in our departments with ROMICRO-set during the last ten years. First we applied it for reconstructive and aesthetic augmentation of the breast. Thereafter, we developed new technique for gynecomastia and reconstruction of diastasis of the m. rectus abdominis sheath. According to our experience, the ROMICRO-set is a useful tool in plastic surgery. The ROMICRO-set can be used through a small incision to achieve three dimensional views with excellent exposure and lighting.

[Left-sided gallbladder].

Transposition of the gallbladder to the left side without situs inversus viscerum is rare. These gallbladders are almost always situated under the left lobe of the liver between the IV and III segments or on the III segment to the left of the falciform ligament. One left positioned gallbladder was found in a consecutive series of 2536 patients undergoing microlaparotomy cholecystectomy for symptomatic gallstone disease in the "Moritz Kaposi" Teaching Hospital between 1990 and 2000, a prevalence of 0.04 per cent. Despite of the abnormal position of the gallbladder, the biliary pain experienced by the patient was on the right side. Preoperative diagnosis of this anomaly was not made in this patient despite preoperative sonography. The cystic duct may open in the common hepatic duct either side. In this anomaly safe microlaparotomy cholecystectomy or laparoscopic cholecystectomy can be performed.
