Education in Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy: Design and Feasibility Study of the LapBot Safe Chole Mobile Game

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC; ie, gallbladder removal) is one of the most commonly performed procedures in the United States and across the world [1]. A complication of LC is bile duct injuries, which can lead to significant morbidity, mortality, disability, and, in turn, health care costs [2-5]. These injuries are often due to errors in surgical judgment and visual misperceptions of critical anatomy and tissue planes [5].

However, some patients with gallstones can be induced by acute or chronic inflammation of biliary colic, vomiting, diarrhea, and right upper abdominal tenderness, and serious cases can lead to cholangitis, biliary pancreatitis, gallbladder cancer, and other risks [1]. The standard treatment of symptomatic gallstone disease is laparoscopic cholecystectomy [2]. Currently, over 700,000 cholecystectomies are performed in the United States each year, with health care costs over US $6.5 billion [3].
