Explicación clara de qué implica este procedimiento quirúrgico desafiante.

--- Speaker Notes: Explicación de qué es la colecistectomía difícil.

A difficult cholecystectomy is the surgical removal of the gallbladder in complicated cases, often due to chronic inflammation, adhesions, or altered anatomy that heightens procedural challenges. It carries a 10-20% risk of bile duct injuries, with laparoscopy as the preferred approach that may convert to open surgery if needed.

¿Qué es la Colecistectomía Difícil?

• Remoción quirúrgica de vesícula biliar en casos complicados.

• Inflamación crónica, adherencias o anatomía alterada aumentan dificultad.

• Riesgo elevado de lesiones biliares (10-20% en casos difíciles).

• Enfoque laparoscópico preferido, posible conversión a abierto.

This slide serves as a section header titled "Clasificación," focusing on the classification of difficult cholecystectomy. It features a subtitle that outlines types based on surgical complexity levels.

Clasificación

Clasificación de Colecistectomía Difícil

Tipos según nivel de complejidad quirúrgica

The slide classifies cholecystectomy difficulty into "Fácil" (Easy) and "Difícil" (Difficult) cases. Easy cases feature no adhesions, a clearly visible gallbladder, and Nassar Grade 1, with low conversion risk (<5%) for routine laparoscopic procedures, while difficult cases involve dense adhesions, acute inflammation, Mirizzi syndrome, or impacted stones (Nassar Grades 2-4), raising biliary complication risks up to 20% and requiring advanced planning like intraoperative cholangiography.

Clasificación de Dificultad

This slide serves as a section header titled "Tratamiento Quirúrgico," focusing on surgical treatment approaches. The subtitle highlights procedures for difficult cholecystectomy, including detailed step-by-step guidance.

Tratamiento Quirúrgico

Enfoque en procedimientos para colecistectomía difícil con pasos detallados

Non-surgical treatments for acute cholecystitis begin with conservative management, including antibiotics, fasting, IV fluids, analgesics, and clinical monitoring, followed by ultrasound evaluation to confirm inflammation resolution. For symptomatic chronic cholecystitis, elective surgery is indicated unless the patient is high-risk, in which case prolonged medical management is preferred.

Tratamientos No Quirúrgicos

• Manejo inicial conservador: antibióticos y ayuno en colecistitis aguda.

• Soporte con fluidos IV, analgésicos y monitoreo clínico.

• Evaluación ecográfica para confirmar resolución inflamatoria.

• Indicación quirúrgica electiva en colecistitis crónica sintomática.

• Evitar cirugía en alto riesgo; optar por manejo médico prolongado.

The timeline slide outlines the key steps in laparoscopic cholecystectomy, starting with inducing general anesthesia and insufflating CO2 to create abdominal space, followed by inserting 3-4 trocars for laparoscopic access. It continues with careful dissection of the Calot triangle to identify critical structures, clipping and sectioning the cystic duct and artery, and concludes with extracting the gallbladder through the umbilical port before closing incisions and draining if needed.

Pasos en Colecistectomía Laparoscópica

1: Anestesia y Neumoperitoneo Inducir anestesia general e insufflar CO2 para crear espacio abdominal. 2: Inserción de Trocares Colocar 3-4 puertos para acceso laparoscópico al abdomen. 3: Disección del Triángulo de Calot Identificar conducto cístico, colédoco y arteria cística con cuidado. 4: Clipaje y Sección Cística Aplicar clips al conducto cístico y dividirlo de forma segura. 5: Extracción y Cierre Retirar vesícula por puerto umbilical; cerrar incisiones y drenar si necesario.

--- Speaker Notes: En colecistectomía difícil: definición como adherencias o inflamación aguda; clasificación por grados de dificultad (ej. NACDE); tratamiento quirúrgico laparoscópico preferido, con pasos detallados; recomendaciones: evaluar preop con eco, preparar para conversión en 5-10% casos; tiempo 60-90 min.

Open cholecystectomy is indicated for difficult cases, such as conversions, using a right subcostal incision, with key steps including exploration, careful dissection, and possible cholangiography. It offers advantages like better control in severe adhesions but has disadvantages including a higher risk of postoperative infection.

Colecistectomía Abierta en Casos Difíciles

• Indicada en conversiones: incisión subcostal derecha.

• Pasos clave: exploración, disección cuidadosa, colangiografía posible.

• Ventajas: mejor control en adherencias severas.

• Desventajas: mayor riesgo de infección postoperatoria.

This slide serves as a section header titled "Recomendaciones," focusing on clinical guidelines. It features a subtitle highlighting updated protocols for difficult cholecystectomy procedures.

Recomendaciones

Guías clínicas actualizadas para colecistectomía difícil

The slide "Recomendaciones Prácticas" outlines practical recommendations for managing cases, starting with preoperative steps like imaging (ultrasound, CT, MRI) and antibiotic prophylaxis. It covers intraoperative use of IOC in over 50% of cases, postoperative monitoring for biliary leaks with laparoscopic discharge in 1-2 days, and advises avoiding procedures in unprepared high-risk patients.

Recomendaciones Prácticas

• Preoperative: Imaging (ultrasound, CT, MRI) and antibiotic prophylaxis.

• Intraoperative: Use IOC in >50% of cases.

• Postoperative: Monitor biliary leaks; discharge in 1-2 days laparoscopically.

• Avoid in unprepared high-risk patients.
