Comparison of the Safety of Absorbable and Hem-o-lok Clips in Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

Safe closure of the cystic duct is the critical step in laparoscopic cholecystectomy. In the literature, the investigators did not observe any prospective study analysing the use of absorbable single clip and Hem-o-lok single clip. In this prospective study, the reliability of the two methods will be compared using a single clip.

Primary outcomes

  1. Complications of patients using absorbable and haem-olok clips will be compared according to the Clavien-Dindo scoring system.

    Time frame: first 30 day

    Is it safe to close the cystic stump with a single (haem-o-lok or absorbable) clip?

Secondary outcomes

  1. The costs of the clips used

    Time frame: one week

    The costs of the clips used will be determined in dollars using Student's t-test.
