Abstract:
Laparoscopy using carbon dioxide has been a standard gynecological procedure for many years. During the past 3 years, it has become commonly used in general surgery as well. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is rapidly spreading world-wide. Although minor and major complications have been attributed to this procedure, their frequency is low. We report a case of subcutaneous emphysema following laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
