- Abstract
The article focuses on the 20th anniversary of the first laparoscopic cholecystectomy, a procedure that was initially viewed with skepticism. The Society of American Gastrointestinal Endoscopy and the Society of American Gastrointestinal and Endoscopic Surgeons has convened a group to deal with the barriers to the development and safe introduction of natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery. The group has established the Natural Orifice Surgery Consortium for Assessment and Research.
