FERNANDEZ SANTIESTEBAN, Llipsy et al. Cirugía videolaparoscópica en urgencias. Rev Cubana Cir [online]. 2003, vol.42, n.4, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1561-2945.
A cross-sectional, prospective and descriptive study of the patients that underwent emergency surgery by the video-assisted laparoscopic technique, from October, 1995, to March, 2001, was conducted. 151 patients were operated on by using this procedure. The diseases treated were acute cholecystitis (45.7 %), acute appendicitis (37.8 %), gynecological diseases and of other type (12.6 and 3.9 %, respectively). The average surgical time was 45 min. The conversion index (only present in colecystectomies) was 3.8 %. The trans- and postoperative complications were observed in 8.6 and 2.6 %, respectively. There were no deaths. Our experience shows that the video-assisted laparoscopic surgery is an excellent procedure to treat many emergency surgical diseases
