Aim: Comparative analysis of cosmetic outcome between Single Incision Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy and conventional Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy.
Method: Patients suffering from symptomatic cholelithasis were randomly subjected to Single Incision Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (SILC) and conventional four ports Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (cLC). Data analyzed included cosmetic outcome,
Results: The body image score for SILC group ranged from 30 to 44 with mean score of 40.76 ± 2.773 while that for cLC group ranged from 33 to 42 with mean score of 38.28 ± 1.969. p-value for the comparison stands 0.001 which shows that patients undergoing SILC had better cosmetic perception of their body image compared to cLC group
Conclusion: SILC is better cosmetic perception as compare to cLC
