What Position of patient undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy is?
The patient is placed in the supine position with the head down and tilted to the right. This position, known as the reverse Trendelenburg position, helps to move the intra-abdominal organs away from the gallbladder, providing the surgeon with a better view of the gallbladder and allowing for easier access to remove it.
Before the surgery begins, the patient will be given general anesthesia so that they are unconscious and do not feel any pain.
The surgeon will make several small incisions in the abdomen, and a camera will be inserted into one of the incisions. This camera will allow the surgeon to see the inside of the abdomen and to identify the gallbladder.
The surgeon will then insert other instruments through the incisions to remove the gallbladder. Typically, the surgeon will use a cautery device to seal off the blood vessels that supply the gallbladder and then a clip or a suture to close the cystic duct. The gallbladder is then removed through one of the incisions.
Once the gallbladder has been removed, the surgeon will close the incisions with stitches or surgical glue.
