[Laparoscopic cholecystectomy--surgical standard in cholelithiasis].
Laparoscopic surgery showed a dramatic development in the last years of the 20th century. From the beginning laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LCCE) has been the pacemaker of this development. Today laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the first choice for treatment of cholecystolithiasis in nearly all surgical clinics. Therefore laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the most common part of minimal invasive technique. LCCE is the golden standard in therapy of gallstones, more than 90% of cholecystectomies in specialized clinics are done laparoscopically. It is an established, evidence based operation today. Open cholecystectomy is left for special indications only. A problem of LCCE is the occult carcinoma of the gallbladder. In histological proven carcinoma of the gallbladder LCCE is the adequate operation only for Tis and T1 carcinoma. In T2 and T3 carcinoma a radical oncologic resection with lymph node dissection should be performed. Due to the poor prognosis T4 tumors should be left with laparoscopic biopsy only.
