02/01/2020 - "Pain score is defined as the primary endpoint, whereas several secondary endpoints, such as the rates of technical success, clinical remission, open conversion of cholecystectomy will be determined to elucidate more detailed differences between two groups. "
10/01/2003 - "With aggressive indicated therapeutic laparoscopy, including adhesiolysis, appendectomy, cholecystectomy, or hernia repairs, more than 70% of patients can have improvement in their pain."
07/01/1998 - "The benefits of mini-cholecystectomy are potential advantages in improved appearance, reduced pain, better respiratory function, fewer wall complications. "

08/01/2017 - "To the best our knowledge, our study is the first to show the protective effect of α-thalassaemia on cholecystitis and cholecystectomy requirements in SCD, which may be due to an improved splenic function."
01/01/2022 - "Days of symptoms and days of hospital admission before surgery do not influence the results of cholecystectomy in moderate acute calculous cholecystitis-Cholecystectomy remains the best treatment."
