[Diagnostic and therapeutic laparoscopy in acute cholecystitis in middle and old age].
Laparoscopic decompression of the gallbladder in elderly and senile patients having acute cholecystitis and in patients with severe coexistent diseases allows arresting the acute inflammatory process in the gallbladder, reducing the amount of forced operations which are extremely dangerous for this contingent of patients. Sanitation of the gallbladder with the electrolytic silver solution and irradiation of the bladder mucosa with laser is highly effective. Microcholecystostoma performed with a catheter having a diameter not less than 2.5 mm maintains adequate decompression of bile ducts and allows performing complete examination of them.
