Background: Post-operative pain is a common complaint after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The use of intraperitoneal local anaesthetic agents during laparoscopic cholecystestectomy have known to significantly alleviate this pain and reduce time to recovery. We aim to compare the use of Bupivacaine in combination with Hydrocortisone when administered in high volume low concentration solution, intraoperatively as intraperitoneal irrigation vs Bupivacaine alone, in patients undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
