Overview

Systematic review finds ultrasonic dissection improves outcomes in acute cholecystitis, suggesting it may be the preferred technique.

Key Points

  • Ultrasonic dissection significantly reduced operative time by 9.13 minutes in laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
  • Hospital stay was shorter by 0.95 days with ultrasonic dissection, indicating improved efficiency in recovery.
  • Blood loss was lower by 27.60 ml in the ultrasonic dissection group compared to electrocautery dissection.
  • Despite some heterogeneity, ultrasonic dissection consistently showed benefits over electrocautery in clinical outcomes.
