A cholecystectomy is generally performed to treat symptomatic cholelithiasis and other gallbladder conditions. This is one of the most common procedures performed in hospitals in the United States. Of the more than 20 million people in the US with gallstones, about 30% will eventually require cholecystectomy to relieve symptoms or treat complications. A cholecystectomy can be performed laparoscopically or as an open procedure. Surgical practice has largely transitioned to the laparoscopic approach. The rate of conversion to an open operation is 2-3% for elective gallbladder surgery and ~10% for acute cholecystitis[1].
