The surgical technique of microlaparotomy cholecystectomy.
The authors are demonstrating the surgical technique of microlaparotomy cholecystectomy and the categorisation of minilaparotomy. In their 1575 unselected cases operated for cholelithiasis and their complications, 94% had microlaparotomy cholecystectomy (MLC: less than 4 cm single skin incision). 5.4% required modern minilaparotomy (4 to 6 cm incision) because of choledocholithotomy or bilioenteric fistula: and 0.3% had classical minilaparotomy (6 to 8 cm incision). In only 0.3% they converted into an incision longer than 8 cm.
