Background Intraoperative cholangiography may allow for earlier identification of common bile duct injury and choledocholithiasis. The role of intraoperative cholangiography in decreasing resource use related to biliary pathology remains unclear. This study tests the null hypothesis that there is no difference in resource use for patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy with versus without intraoperative cholangiography. Methods This retrospective, longitudinal cohort study included 3,151 patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy at 3 university hospitals. To minimize differences in baseline characteristics while maintaining adequate statistical power, propensity scores were used to match 830 patients who underwent intraoperative cholangiography at surgeon discretion and 795 patients who underwent cholecystectomy without intraoperative cholangiography. Primary outcomes were the incidence of postoperative endoscopic retrograde cholangiography, the interval between surgery and endoscopic retrograde cholangiography, and total direct costs. Results In the propensity-matched analysis, the intraoperative cholangiography and no intraoperative cholangiography cohorts had similar age, comorbidities, American Society of Anesthesiologists Sequential Organ Failure Assessment scores, and total/direct bilirubin ratios. The intraoperative cholangiography cohort had a lower postoperative endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (2.4% vs 4.3%; P=. 04), a shorter interval between cholecystectomy and endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (2.5 [1.0–17.8] vs 4.5 [2.0–9.5] days; P=. 04), and shorter length of stay (0.3 [0.2–1.5] vs 1.4 [0.3–3.2] days; P<. 001). Patients undergoing intraoperative cholangiography had lower total direct costs ($4.0 K [3.6 K–5.4 K] vs $8.1 K [4.9 K–13.0 K]; P<. 001). There were no differences in 30-day or 1-year mortality among the cohorts. Conclusion Compared with laparoscopic cholecystectomy without intraoperative cholangiography, cholecystectomy with intraoperative cholangiography was associated with decreased resource use, which was primarily attributable to decreased incidence and the earlier timing of postoperative endoscopic retrograde cholangiography.
