Abstract

This study was conducted to find the change in blood sugar and electrolytes for the gallstone patients who undergo cholecystectomy (both type's laparoscopy and open laparotomy). Serum electrolytes included: sodium, potassium, and calcium. This study included 120 patients (92 female and 28 male), aged between (16-65).Two samples were taken from the patients (first sample pre cholecystectomy, and the second sample after 2 weeks of it. 

The result showed Fasting blood sugar increased significantly (p≤ 0.05) in females group pre cholecystectomy comparing to after it, while there was no significant difference in males group. For serum electrolytes Results showed a  high significant increase (p≤ 0.01)  in sodium and potassium concentrations pre cholecystectomy comparing with their concentrations after it, while there was a high significant decrease in calcium concentrations (p≤ 0.01)  before operative comparing to after it.
