Most studies utilize selection
criteria when evaluating patients for DCLC [5, 21].
Ali et al [22] reported successful DCLC in 92% of selected
patients. In our study only patients who fulfill our selection
criteria were subjected to DCLC and resulted in successful
completion of DCLC in 96% patients. The rate of unplanned
admission in DCLC is a quality index as it might represent
the existence of inadequate criteria in selection of patients
who given their characteristics, precedents, or preoperative
findings were not candidate to this type of surgery.
