[Cholecystectomy by celioscopy: indications and safety of the method. Apropos of a consecutive series of 300 patients].
We performed a laparoscopic cholecystectomy in 300 patients with gallstone disease complicated or not. The rate success was 97%, however involved the pathology might be. Indeed, 15% of the patients had an acute cholecystitis (10% catarrhalis, 5% empyema). Twenty-four patients with common bile duct stones had a complete endoscopic management of the biliary disease: endoscopic sphincterotomy and laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Operative mortality was absent and overall morbidity was 3.7%, exclusively minor.
