Acute cholecystitis: Video-laparoscopic versus traditional treatment

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. © 2001 by JSLS, Journal of the Society of Laparoendoscopic Surgeons.
