Reseña del editor:

The management of gallstone disease has undergone fundamental change with the wide-spread adoption of laparoscopic cholechystectomy which is now the preferred method of treatment amongst the surgical community. Although few would doubt the benefits that the move towards laparoscopic procedures has brought, there is still considerable controversy about whether or not laparoscopic surgery is the only option to be considered when treating gallstones. This book looks as the options available to the practising surgeon. The editors, recognized experts in the treatment of gallstone disease, have brought together an international team of experts to evaluate open surgery, laparoscopic surgery and therapeutic treatment. At a time of major reassessment in general surgery, this text provides an authoritive reference for the treatment of gall bladder disease which should be of practical value to general surgeons worldwide - concentrating not only on the various options of treatment available, but also reflecting the difference in practice between national surgical communities. After describing gallstone pathogenesis, the book is broken down into twenty-four sections with each chapter devoted to a single form of management, including oral dissolution therapy, gallbladder lithotripsy, open cholecystolithotomy, laparoscopic cholecystectomy, mini cholecystectomy, and so on.
