Randomized clinical trial of ultrasonic<i>versus</i>electrocautery dissection of the gallbladder in laparoscopic cholecystectomy

Abstract

The use of ultrasonic dissection in laparoscopic cholecystectomy reduces the incidence of gallbladder perforation and helps the operation to progress. Less experienced surgeons benefit most from ultrasonic dissection, particularly in complicated intraoperative circumstances.
