Scarless Cholecystectomy Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy During Abdominoplasty
Case description
Our patient presented to our hospital with abdominal wall laxity and symptomatic cholelithiasis. She wanted to undergo a cosmetic procedure (abdominoplasty) to reduce the abdominal wall laxity. She was also diagnosed to have cholelithiasis and had intermittent episodes of pain in the right upper quadrant of the abdomen. The ports for laparoscopic cholecystectomy were made in such a way that all the ports sites were beneath the skin flap that was excised during abdominoplasty, and there was no scar in the upper abdomen. The procedure was completed without leaving any telltale signs of laparoscopic cholecystectomy, and this led to a better cosmetic result from the patients’ point of view.
