ABSTRACT

In just over 20 years, laparoscopic cholecystectomy has emerged as the standard therapy for cholelithiasis and is now being performed with increased safety. However, an uncommon complication of this technique has been jaundice even in patients without iatrogenic bile duct injury. We report on two cases where this complication occurred and review the literature on this topic.


En sólo poco más de 20 años, la colecistectomía laparoscópica se ha convertido en la forma de terapia estándar de la colelitiasis, y se la está utilizando en la actualidad con mayor seguridad. No obstante, una complicación poco común de esta técnica ha sido la ictericia, incluso en pacientes sin lesión iatrogénica de la vía biliar. Reportamos dos casos en lo que ocurrió esta complicación, y examinamos la literatura sobre este asunto.
