Rouviere’s Sulcus Anatomy and Its Overall Impact on Operative Time and Complications in Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy: A Longitudinal Observational Study
RS was present in most patients, and its absence modestly prolonged CT dissection but did not significantly affect overall operative time or complication rates. While RS can aid orientation, it should complement rather than replace established safety strategies such as the Critical View of Safety and bailout techniques. Multicenter studies are warranted to further clarify the clinical utility of RS morphology.
