title: [Our experience with the surgical treatment of cholelithiasis].
abstract: The treatment results in 312 patients with cholelithiasis, covering the period 1989 to 1993, are retrospectively analyzed. Overall postoperative lethality amounts to 4.4 per cent. The obtained results are fully comparable in terms of both missed concrements left behind within the extrahepatic bile ducts, and in terms of postoperative complications, associated with the indications for choledochotomy. This is attributed to the therapeutic approach algorithm adopted with respect to the indications for intraoperative cholangiography and choledochotomy.
