title: [Laparoscopic management in acute cholecystitis].
abstract: The authors discuss the possibility of changing out laparoscopic cholecystectomy during the first clinical manifestation of acute cholecystitis. The international published series report similar results to those found with the laparotomic operation. There is no common operating conduct either or regards surgical technique or the diagnosis of possible pathologies of biliary ducts. It is shown the effective improvement of the pain, the lowest complications and the duration of the postoperative course which, especially in old patients, results considerably diminished with consequent advantage for them.
