| pubmed-article:1467896 | pubmed:abstractText | Endoscopy of the upper digestive tract was performed in 376 patients with symptomatic gallstone disease before elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Abnormalities were found in 60 patients (16.0 per cent); these included peptic ulcer (n = 14), gastric erosions (n = 15) and oesophagitis (n = 11). Thirty patients were treated medically and two by endoscopic polypectomy. In four patients endoscopy led to cancellation of cholecystectomy; in two the complaints have persisted. Statistical analysis of 28 variables showed few significant differences in symptoms between patients with normal and those with abnormal appearances at endoscopy. It is concluded that routine endoscopy before laparoscopic cholecystectomy is neither clinically useful nor cost effective in patients with symptomatic gallstone disease. This conclusion is related exclusively to patients with typical gallstone symptoms according to the definition used in this department. | lld:pubmed |
