Excerpt

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) has become the standard of care for patients requiring removal of the gallbladder. In 1992, a National Institutes of Health (NIH) consensus development conference concluded that “laparoscopic cholecystectomy provides a safe and effective treatment for most patients with symptomatic gallstones, laparoscopic cholecystectomy appears to have become the procedure of choice for many of these patients” [1]. …
