title: [Subcutaneous emphysema during laparoscopy. A case report].
abstract: Diagnostic and therapeutic laparoscopy is a safe procedure, which, however, is not without complications. In this article, we report a case of subcutaneous emphysema, as a consequence of pneumoperitoneum, during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The mechanism for the development of this complication and its management are discussed.
