Acute cholecystitis: video-laparoscopic versus traditional treatment

P C Amaral et al. JSLS. 2001 Apr-Jun.

Abstract

It has been shown that a video-laparoscopic approach is the preferred method for treatment of cholecystitis. However, when we consider acute cholecystitis, many questions must be answered. The aim of this study is to compare video-laparoscopic and conventional surgery in the management of acute cholecystitis.
