ABSTRACT
Background: cholecystectomy is one of the surgical procedures that are still practiced despite the passing of time. It remains the appropriate method to perform in the absence of advanced technology.Objective: to describe the results of the open cholecystectomy in the treatment of gallstones.
Methods: a descriptive study was conducted in patients operated on for gallstones in 2012 in the María G. Guerrero Ramos Comprehensive Diagnostic Center in the Capital District, Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela. The information was obtained from medical records and a data collection model. The variables analyzed were: age, sex, associated diseases, signs and symptoms, results of the surgical treatment, outcome and complications.
Results: a total of 147 patients underwent surgery; the 41-60 year age group and female patients predominated; right hypochondrial pain and intolerance to fatty foods and grains were the major signs and symptoms. Cefazolin was the most widely used antibiotic. Patients recovered satisfactorily, complications were minimal.
Conclusions: open cholecystectomy remains useful for the treatment of gallstones in the absence of advanced technology.
