Abstract
Unlike previous procedures, laparoscopic-cholecystectomy is performed without touching the internal organs, so the ability of the operator is directly reflected in the results. One of the keys to success with this procedure is to share the terminology related to basic surgical technique by which all staff can represent the methods involved, allowing directions from the operator to be precisely followed. This paper describes in detail the tips of laparoscopic cholecystectomy. A thorough grasp of biliary tract configuration is important in the success of this operation, and ways of avoiding bile duct injury are proposed. Lastly, we would like to emphasize that the operator is asked to visualize the operative procedure objectively with mental well-being, but without overestimating their own technique.
