[Laparoscopic cholecystectomy: the complications].
The authors report their experience of 48 consecutive cases of colecystectomy performed using a videolaparoscopic technique. Laparoscopic surgery was not successful in only two patients in whom it was necessary to resort to laparotomy; bile duct injury occurred in one patient. On the basis of their experience the authors conclude by affirming that this videolaparoscopic technique may be applied to almost all patients requiring cholecystectomy since it offers considerable advantages over traditional techniques.
