Cholecystectomy. Open cholecystectomy revisited.
We have presented a basic set of rules to follow in the performance of cholecystectomy. We do not wish to convince the reader that these methods are the only ones, but they are a safe starting point for the novice surgeon working in the right upper quadrant. Each of us takes part of what we are taught, amplifies what we find works best for us, and tries to impart to others the experience we have gained.
