| Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy Utilization GRAPH BACK to List of IndicatorsDRAFT |
| Cholecystectomy
(surgical removal of the gall bladder) is now performed with a laparoscope
in about 75 percent of uncomplicated cases. The majority of these procedures
are done on an outpatient basis. In less severe cases, the laparoscopic
technique is associated with fewer complications than the traditional open
method. However, the laparoscopic technique might not be possible due to
patient condition or anatomy. Since this report includes only those cases
that are performed on hospital inpatients, it does not present a complete
picture of the occurrence of this procedure. In general, higher percentages
are better.
