NCT01553331

Brief Summary

Day case laparoscopic cholecystectomy can be made with conventional diathermy hook starting at triangle of Calot´s. Ultrasonic dissection starting from the gallbladder fundus is another option. The aim is to test the hypothesis that with ultrasonic dissection technique a better same day discharge and a shorter operative time can be achieved.
