INTRODUCTION: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the most frequent procedure for the general surgeon. Biliary injury is a concern that must be addressed with the purpose of lowering the rate. The critical view of safety (CVS) is a target of dissection that impulses safety during the procedure. OBJECTIVE: Determine by an ambispective analysis the safety during dissection of laparoscopic cholecystectomy in Hospital Civil de Culiacán (México). METHODS: Descriptive, ambispective, observational, cross-sectional. Patients admitted to the operating room for a laparoscopic cholecystectomy were scored with Doublet photography rating criteria from January 1st 2015 to January 31, 2017. RESULTS: 321 patients were evaluated, 77.9% were female and 22.1% male. The mean age was 45.57 ± 16.17 years. 65.4% had admission diagnosis of cholelithiasis, 24.3% acute cholecystitis, 5.9% chronic cholecystitis, 3.7% hydrocolecist and 0.6% pyocolecist. Surgeries were scored with Doublet photography. The CVS was obtained in 41.4% of the procedures with a statistical significance between a HPB surgeon and a general surgery resident (p ≤ 0.05). CONCLUSION: Recording Doublet photography provides a reliable CVS dissection criterion. It can be easily reproduced during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The identification of cystic structures adds to the culture of safety during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Copyright:
