✦ Synopsis

In suitable patients the gallbladder can be excised in local anesthesia through a very small incision. The anatomical background of a safe local anesthesia and the operative procedure is described. Candidates for this operation are patients with gallbladder stone disease without severe acute or chronic complications, and with normal and stone free bile ducts. This type of intervention is an enlargement of the surgeon's armentarium, and it can be offered to patients unwilling to have general anesthesia or with severe contraindications to narcosis.
