[Advantages of the laser in laparoscopic cholecystectomy].
Use of the holmium and Nd:YAG laser is clearly advantageous in laparoscopic cholecystectomy, i.e., less perforation of the gallbladder when compared to the use of the hook electrode, shorter intervention time and less postoperative pain. Laser-operated patients can therefore be discharged 1.5 days earlier than those patients in whom cholecystectomy had been performed using electrocautery.
