Data concerning 6,865 laparocholecystectomies have been collected retrospectively from 19 Italian groups. Only 5% of all patients were chosen for open cholecystectomy (OC). Acute cholecystitis was present in 5.6% of laparocholecystectomies (LC). Conversion to laparotomy occurred in 3.1% of patients. Mortality was 0.06%, morbidity 2.53% (general anesthesia complications 0.07%; general complications 0.07%; omphalitis 0.7%; abdominal complications 1.69%). Main duct lesions occurred in 0.26% of the patients, biliary leaks in 0.48%, bleedings in 0.75%, perforations in 0.2%. Data from literature concerning OC are compared to ours: mortality and morbidity have been lowered by LC; general and abdominal-wall complications have been drastically reduced; main duct lesions are not different.
