Biliary damage (0.08-0.5%), bile leak (0.42-1.1%), retained common bile duct stones (0.8-5.7%), postcholecystectomy syndrome (10-15%), and postcholecystectomy diarrhea (5-12%) are a few of the most often occurring laparoscopic cholecystectomy consequences. In many in...

Postoperative bile duct leaks are usually manifested within a week after surgery.51In a series of 62 patients with postcholecystectomy leaks, initial symptoms included abdominal pain in 89%,abdominal tendernessin 81%, fever in 74%, nausea and vomiting in 43%, and jaundice in 43%.51Only 2% ha...

“Whether robotic-assisted cholecystectomy leads to even safer outcomes than minimally invasive laparoscopic cholecystectomy remains unclear. Some contend that robotic-assisted cholecystectomy may be safer because it offers 3-dimensional visualization, enhanced instrument articulation to allow for more complex ma...
The PostERCP approach was the best approach. This is perhaps because ERCP after laparoscopic cholecystectomy could treat biliary leaks resulting from the cholecystectomy itself, resulting in an overall lower rate of fistulas. Potentially, an IntraERCP approach could also reduce a biliary leak due to ...
In this patient a T tube was placed to repair a section of the common bile duct during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Due to the presence of a stricture two stents were placed after removal of the T tube. Three months later the stents were removed and due to a persistent tight stricture, 3...
If a biliary tract injury is suspected during percutaneous renal procedures, diverting the bile away from the leak may resolve the problem without the need for a cholecystectomy. Ideally this can be done with ERCP and a stent, but in cases where this is not technically feasible;...
Postcholecystectomy Dilatation Whether dilatation of the duct occurs aftercholecystectomyhas been debated in the literature for years. It has been proposed that in the absence of a gallbladder, the CBD dilates to function as a reservoir. Two studies, however, suggest that if the CBD is normal ...
