title: [Risk factors in laparoscopic cholecystectomy].
abstract: In this report the authors have analysed the various risk factors of the laparoscopy cholecystectomy, proving that those are not different from the ones of standard open cholecystectomy. It has been underlined that laparoscopy cholecystectomy offers significant advantages over open cholecystectomy and moreover the possibility to convert laparoscopy cholecystectomy when it is necessary.
