The majority of them (71,8%) had an elective surgery, though 28,2% of patients underwent an emergency operation. A comparative assessment of obligate treatment criteria was made in 2 groups. A first group consisted of 803 patients and it was before introduction of Roman selection criteria used for surgical treatment of patients. A second group included 2963 patients in the period after introduction of selection criteria. Preoperative planning of surgery with evaluation of technical complexity of all stages of intervention with prognosis for possible complications should be the base of reasonable choice of surgical method of treatment of cholelithiasis and safety protection of surgery. The study completed and results obtained allowed decrease of the rate of postoperative complications to 1,4% and lethality - to 0,3%, respectively.
