To compare cystic artery cliping vs cystic artery coagulation by bipolar force during laparoscopic cholecystectomy in cases of chronic cholecystitis. One hundred ten cholelithiasis patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy of both genders were equally (55) into two groups. Each group had 55 patients. Clinical diagnosis, cystic artery number, cystic artery origin, discharge and complications etc. was recorded. Out of 110 patients, males comprised 50 (45.4%) and females 60 (54.6%). Diagnosis in group I and group II patients was biliary colic in 14 and 18, acute cholecystitis in 30 and 22, gall bladder empyema in 6 and 9, gall bladder mucocele in 5 and 6 respectively. Cystic artery number was single in 38 and 42, branched in 10 and 9 and absent in 7 and 4 patients respectively. Cystic artery origin was right hepatic artery in 42 and 40, superior mesenteric artery in 5 and 12 and other variations in 8 and 3 patients in group I and II respectively. Forty six patients in group I and 42 patients in group II were discharged on 1 day and 9 patients in group I and 13 patients in group II were discharged in 2 days. The difference was significant (p<0.05). Complications recorded were intra‐operative hemorrhage in 2 in group I and 3 in group II and bile leak in 0 in both groups. Results from bipolar electrocautery technique are equivalent to those from the traditional clip technique.
