title: [Evolution of approaches to surgical treatment of complicated cholecystitis].
abstract: More than 17 thousand surgeries for calculous cholecystitis and its complications including 560 repeated surgeries on the major bile ducts were performed. Based on this experience three stages in treatment of complicated cholecystitis are distinguished. Principal changes of surgical policy are the criteria of this division. From 1993 a tendency towards mini-invasive surgery in complicated cholecystitis was developing. Optimal terms of surgery, adequate scope improved technique improve significantly results of surgical treatment of complicated cholelithiasis.
