Abstract

OBJECTIVES: Laparoscopic surgery is well established in general patients but its safety and efficacy in
pregnant patients is still debated especially in emergency situation.
METHODS: This study was conducted at Rai Medical Complex, Sargodha as prospective single centre
study for all pregnant patients in need of laparoscopic appendectomy and cholecystectomy for acute
appendicitis and acute cholecystitis respectively from April 2009 to December, 2011. After routine
preoperative assessment, all were operated under general anesthesia with antibiotic cover, foure port
technique for lap. chole. And three port technique for lap. appendectomy were used. Peri-operative
morbidity and mortality for the mother and fetus were evaluated at Rai Medical Complex, Sargodha from
2009 to 2011.
RESULTS: 32 patients underwent laparoscopic procedures. 18 had laparoscopic cholecystectomy and 14
laparoscopic appendectomies. No maternal death and no loss of fetus.
CONCLUSION: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy and appendectomy appears to be as safe as in open
surgery in pregnant women.
