    Abstract:
    We report a case of general anesthesia for laparoscopic cholecystectomy at 12 weeks of gestation. A 20-year-old woman weighing 123 kg was admitted with epigastralgia. She was diagnosed as pregnancy of 6 weeks of gestation and acute cholecystitis. Percutaneous trans-gallbladder drainage was performed to delay operation until 12 weeks of gestation. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed uneventfully under general anesthesia combined with epidural anesthesia. There were no clinical signs of fetal distress during the perioperative period.
