Cholecystectomy: Proportion of patients with simple calculus without complications

Cholelithiasis is a widespread condition characterized by the presence of stones in the gallbladder and / or bile ducts; It affects women the most, with a female-to-male ratio of 2 to 1. Acute cholecystitis is an acute inflammation of the gallbladder wall, accompanied by cholelithiasis in 95% of cases; the chronic form is often characterized by recurrent colic and a contracted, fibrotic, thickened-walled gallbladder. Cholelithiasis with or without cholecystitis is an important cause of abdominal surgery. The procedure may be performed in laparoscopy or open surgery (laparotomy). Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is now considered the "gold standard" in the treatment of gallbladder stones in uncomplicated cases. Find out more about: http://95.110.213.190/prevale2014
