Objective: To compare the risk of surgical site infections in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy with or without prior ERCP. Study Design: Prospective Comparative study. Setting: Surgical Unit-I of Holy Family Hospital, Rawalpindi. Period: December 2021 to May 2022. Methods: Total 140 patients were included. Group A had ERCP before their laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Those, who had laparoscopic cholecystectomy without first undergoing ERCP included in Group B. For this study, we used SPSS to analyze the data we gathered (version 23.0). Two groups were compared for surgical site infection using the Chi-square test. The level of significance was set at P 0.05. Results: Total 140 patients with biliary tract disease (choledocholithiasis, cholangitis and cholelithiasis) were enrolled in this study. In group-A, there were 16(22.9%) males and 54(77.1%) females, while in Group-B, there were 14(20.0%) males and 56(80.0%) females. In patients with prior ERCP group, 28(40.0%) developed surgical site infections, while in patients without ERCP group, 13(18.6%) developed surgical site infections with a p-value of 0.005, which is statistically significant. Conclusion: An increase in the incidence of SSI following laparoscopic cholecystectomy by two- fold is connected with pre-operative (ERCP) so we plan to assess if this technique is linked to a higher risk of wound infection after surgery. we suggest that long term use of antibiotics can reduce the rate of SSI and longer stay of patients in hospital.
