Introduction: in developing countries, patients getting admitted into hospital is influenced by gallbladder stone. In this study, the incidence and outcome of iatrogenic gallbladder perforation during laparoscopic cholecystectomy was observed and studied for further development in this sector in a tertiary care hospital. Aim of the study: The aim of this study was to find out the incidence and outcome of iatrogenic gallbladder perforation during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Methods: This prospective observational study was conducted in Department of Surgery, Combined Military Hospital (CMH) Dhaka, Bangladesh during the period from June 2018 to November 2018. This study had institutional review board approval and informed consent for 100 patients age range 31-70 years (mean 50.3±10.6) in gallbladder perforation group and in no perforation group the range was 25 to 62 years (mean 47.9±12.3). The patients went through laparoscopic cholecystectomy through four port and gallbladder was removed through hepigastric port. The ultrasonographic report of all patients were collected. Result: In the present study, majority 86 patients were found normal body weight (BMI 18.5-24.9 kg/m2) but female patients were high in number of affected list, 14(73.7%) in gallbladder perforation group and 56(69.1%) in no perforation group. A single stone is mainly found in no perforation group which is 32(39.5%). Multiple stone is found less in both of the groups respectively. Staying in the hospital was also higher in gallbladder group in comparison with no perforation group. Conclusion: According to the study, perforation in gallbladder due to laparoscopic cholecystectomy is not deniable (19%). This can result in peroperative pain and more stay in hospital.
