title: [Diseases of the gallbladder and biliary tract. Indications for operation (author's transl)].
abstract: Surgery of the gallbladder and biliary tract has undergone a few technical changes and widening of possibilities in the last 10 years. Opinions of the surgeons on the one hand and the rest of the medical profession on the other hand differ, often markedly, on the indications for operation in the gallbladder and biliary tract area particularly. For this reason it seems appropriate to present the current position of gallbladder and biliary tract surgery and its indications.
