The high risk of peritonitis following a perforation of the gall bladder is discussed in a short review of the literature. In 15 years 9084 operations of the bile ducts were performed at Nord-West-Hospital, Franfurt/M., among these were 36 cases of free gall bladder perforation. Our experiences with abdominal drainage only, without perfusion of the abdomen following cholecystectomy and revision of the bile ducts with simultaneous systemic appliance of antibiotics are reported.
