TOTEM has measured the differential cross section for elastic pp scattering at the LHC energy of $/sqrt{s}=$ 7 TeV analysing data from a short run with dedicated large β* optics. After extrapolation of a single exponential fit to |t|=0, applying the optical theorem and using the luminosity measurement from CMS, a total proton-prototn cross section of (98.3 +- 0.2{stat} +-2.8{syst}) mb was deduced.
