Background: Bikini line laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a safe method, used as a scarless cosmetic port technique for gall bladder diseases in morbid obese patients as a day case. Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the safety and efficacy of an elective Bikini line laparoscopic cholecystectomy in the morbid obese patients with chronic calcular cholecystitis, and review our experience with Bikini line laparoscopic cholecystectomy as minimal invasive scarless technique. We issued a modifications in order to minimize the number of ports (Brief ports) and modify port sites, using the Bikini line laparoscopic cholecystectomy as a cosmetic and hidden scar laparoscopy for obese patients concerned with aesthetic results and body image. Aiming at faster recovery, decrease pain and improve cosmoses. Bikini Line laparoscopic cholecystectomy is technically safe and effective day surgery procedure for chronic cholecystitis patients with higher patient satisfaction regarding pain and cosmoses. Obesity, intended as BMI 40, does not have any obstacle on the technical feasibility of BLLC.
