title: Tendencies in the development of gall-stone surgery with high medical technologies applied.
abstract: At present the endoscopic methods are the most acceptable in the treatment of gall-stone disease and its complications. Obstructions of terminal part of common bile duct and bile duct stones are removed by means of endoscopic sphincterotomy. Cholecystectomy is performed by means of laparoscope. A decrease in mortality and post-operative complications has been noted. At the same time negative affects of endoscopic operations in patients with concomitant somatic diseases were revealed. These patients require individual methods of approach to guarantee safe operation.
