  • Title: [Laparoscopy in chronic gallbladder diseases].
    Author: Petzold H, Liebe S.
    Journal: Z Gesamte Inn Med; 1979 Oct 01; 34(19):584-6. PubMed ID: 161681.
    Abstract:
    The laparoscopy is the only riskless possibility of directly inspecting the gall-bladder, to ascertain the diagnosis of a chronic cholecystitis, further to consider the indications to internal or surgical measures. For the judgment the form of the gall-bladder, the behaviour of its wall with different colouring, oedema and furthermore its behaviour to neighbouring organs are of decisive evidence. In a disease of the bile-ducts the laparoscopy allows to prove or to exclude a participation of the liver. For the judgment of the activity of a disease of the gall-bladder should, however, always be used clinical and radiological findings, the microbiological investigation of the A-, B-, and C-bile and the testing of the reflex of the gall-bladder. This is necessary with regard to the therapy.
