Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is one of the procedures through which gall bladder can be removed. Acute cholecystitis was considered a contraindication for laparoscopic procedure but with time and experience this shortcoming is now overcome. Here is a study of 32 patients who were selected for laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Among them, 29 patients were operated by laparoscopic method and rest three patients were converted. This study showed the appropriate time for surgery, technical difficulties and the complication of surgery. It may be concluded that laparoscopic cholecystectomy is feasible and beneficial to the patient with acute cholecystitis in its early phase, if necessary support and expertise is available.
