- W4386648097 abstract "Laparoscopic surgery is the gold standard for many abdominal surgeries. Laparoscopic programs in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) and in sub-Saharan Africa face many constraints, although its use is safe, feasible, and clinically beneficial. The authors assessed patient-reported outcomes and the experience of patients operated on at the University Teaching Hospital of Kigali (CHUK).This is a retrospective cross-sectional study combining medical data from medical files and information collected from telephone calls to 288 patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy at CHUK from January 2015 to December 2020.Among 446 laparoscopic surgeries performed at CHUK over 6 years, cholecystectomies accounted for 64.6 % of cases (288/446). Postoperative complications and mortality after laparoscopic cholecystectomy were low, respectively 1.7 % and 0.7 %, while the median length of stay was 3 days. About 74 % of surveyed patients had never heard of laparoscopic surgery prior to their procedure. Knowledge of laparoscopic surgery was associated with patient education level (p < 0.001). Half of patients had not been involved in the choice of the surgical technique. Overall satisfaction was over 95 % and >90 % of patients consider laparoscopic surgery as the best surgical approach in Rwanda, and for this reason they declared to be ready to promote this new technology despite its higher cost. However, patients reported some weaknesses and made recommendations for improving public awareness of laparoscopy and its benefits, patient-provider relationships, training of surgical workforce, laparoscopic equipment, and infrastructure.Laparoscopic cholecystectomy can be performed with a low rate of postoperative complications in a resource-limited setting like Rwanda. Patient satisfaction was high, but efforts should be made to improve public awareness of laparoscopic surgery, improve surgical capacity, laparoscopic equipment, and infrastructure." @default.
