The Ultra sound report showed problems with the gall bladder of the complainant and showed that it was not functioning properly. It is very important to note that the complainant has not questioned this aspect in the present complaint that her gall bladder required removal.

The procedure, i.e. laparoscopic cholecystectomy, is a procedure in which the gallbladder is removed by laparoscopic techniques. Laparoscopic surgery also referred to as minimally invasive surgery describe the performance of surgical procedures with the assistance of a video camera and several thin instruments. The standard surgery to remove the gallbladder is called a cholecystectomy. In this kind of surgery, the gallbladder is removed openly via an incision made in the abdomen. A less invasive way to remove the gallbladder is called laparoscopic cholecystectomy. This surgery uses an instrument called the laparoscope to remove the gallbladder.

The benefits of minimally invasive or laparoscopic procedures include less post-operative discomfort since the incisions are much smaller, quicker recovery times, shorter hospitals stays, earlier return to full activities and much smaller scars. Furthermore, there may be less internal scarring when the procedures are performed in a minimally invasive fashion compared to standard open surgery.

As gallbladder removal is a major abdominal operation and a certain amount of postoperative pain occurs. Any surgery has potential complications, including incision bleeding, movement of surgical materials to other parts of the body, pain, or infection with or without a fever. Typically, it takes the body time to adjust to its new method of digesting fat. Some patients do develop longer-term side effects, usually caused by bile leaking into other organs or gallstones that were left behind in the bile ducts. In addition, there are digestive side effects plus gallbladder removal  carries a small risk of various complications. These include, bile leakage, injury to bile duct in the course of removing gallbladder (this may need an additional operation to fix this), injury to surrounding structures, to nearby blood vessels, liver, intestines, blood clots, infection, bleeding (hemorrhage), anesthesia reactions, heart problems, et cetera. A study published in March, 2018 in the journal HPB found that among people who underwent gallbladder removal because of mild gallstone pancreatitis (inflamed pancreas), nearly 15 percent experienced an attack of pain in the area after the surgery and in some cases, pain may result from gallstones remaining in the bile ducts. Articles detailing the complications of laparoscopic cholecystectomy with an analysis laparoscopic operation.

As per research (Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy): an Indian experience of 1233 cases, it is widely accepted internationally that the post operative complications may arise based on Human anatomy, and it does not constitute or establish any negligence on part of performing surgeon).  
Medical Facts- International Study:- As per various medical research conducted by various national and International Authorities like and as per official journal of International Hepato-Pancreato Biliary Association, America Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary Association and European-African Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary Association- Evan though laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) has become the customary method for treating gallstones, some incidents and complications appear rather more  frequently than with the open technique. Several aspects of these complications and their treatment possibilities are analyzed. During the past decade it has become the procedure of choice in the surgical treatment of cholecystectomy. The operation is not completely risk-free, some incidents and complications being more frequent than with open cholecystectomy (OC).  Hence, it remains the choice of patient to go for open cholecystectomy (OC) or laparoscopic cholecystectomy.  

The opposite parties have filed a certificate regarding Master of surgery degree of the doctor Ajit Kapoor . We have seen it and found it is for general surgery issued on January 1984. Whether the doctor has taken any foundation course or any diploma or any special course regarding Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy and Laparoscopic Hysterectomy? The first laparoscopic cholecystectomy in India was performed in 1990 at the JJ Hospital, Mumbai, followed a few months later in Pune by Dr. Jyotsna Kulkarni. J. Barry McKernan and William B. Saye performed the first laparoscopic cholecystectomy in the United States on June 22, 1988 in Marietta, Georgia. In performing their very first laparoscopic cholecystectomy, Saye sutured the cystic duct and artery. So it is a new device or branch and the general surgeon has power to do this but as it is a new technique, there should be some guidelines are short-term course to perform this procedure. It is not clear that in this case whether the Dr has taken any such course of laparoscopic cholecystectomy?
