Objective : To find out the prevalence of causes, risk factors of conversion from LC to OC among  patient suffering from gall bladder disease, and  to explore the most common causes of conversion from laparoscopic to open cholecystectomy.

Methods: This prospective study was conducted in the department of general surgery at Alkindy teaching hospital from first of January 2016 to the end of December 2017 .Nine hundred twenty patient were included.

Thirty –eight patients were converted to open cholecystectomy. The most common cause of conversation was dense adhesions 42.1% - followed by bleeding 30.1%. Other common causes of conversion were biliary anomalous anatomy 10.5%, common bile injury 5%, visceral injury and technical failure  7%.

Conclusion: The main perioperative cause for OC was dense adhesion around gall bladder and the male gender, increasing age, history of common bile duct stone removed by previous ERCP, history of previous surgery, are independent risk factors of difficult laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
