3D laparoscopy does not reduce operative duration or errors in day-case laparoscopic cholecystectomy: a randomised controlled trial.

3D laparoscopy did not reduce overall operative time or error frequency in laparoscopic cholecystectomies performed by specialist surgeons. 3D reduced Calot's dissection time and operative time in complex cases as well as the incidence of iatrogenic gallbladder perforation (NCT01930344).
