[Questions concerning transhepatic gallbladder puncture].

Development and spread of several diagnostic and therapeutic procedures focuses the radiologists' attention on the percutaneous gall-bladder puncture. Percutaneous rapid gall-stone dissolution is one of these important questions. Authors studied the anatomical situation of the liver and gall-bladder regarding the possibilities of the percutaneous gall-bladder puncture. Authors have concluded that the transhepatic approach is possible in every case. The extra-peritoneal approach cannot be avoided. On the basis of the results lateral direction of puncture on the so-called one-stick-introduces system is recommended by the authors.
