title: [The use of an ultrasonic lithotripter during video laparoscopic cholecystectomy].
abstract: The video laparoscopic cholecystectomy, a new technique recently introduced in surgical surgery, includes, among other complications, also the dimension of stones. Our intention in the present work is to remove this limitation using an ultrasound lithotripter to reduce the dimension of lithiasic formations, avoiding, after all, to resort to minilaparotomy or to the use of dilators which are in contrast at least with two of the principles of methodology, the aesthetic and functional one for the patient.
