We compared four port procedure with newer 3-port cholecystectomy.</p> <p><strong>Methods: </strong>Sixty patients were operated by equally dividing them into two groups and using two procedures mentioned in the objective.</p> <p><strong>Results and Discussion: </strong>Assessment was carried out using parameters like operative time, cosmetic appearance and complications. Results were similar except operative time which was much less with 4-port procedure.</p> <p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>It will require lot of training before three port laparoscopic cholecystectomy can become popular and beneficial compared to four-port procedure.</p> <p>Bangladesh Journal of Medical Science Vol. 21(1) 2022 Page : 151-157</p>}, number={1}, journal={Bangladesh Journal of Medical Science}, author={Garg, Ram Kirti and Kumar, Rajesh and Singh, Bir and Singal, Rikki and Singal, Kiran Kumar and Sharma, Ram Gopal}, year={2022}, month={Jan.}, pages={151–157} }
