Management of laparoscopic cholecystectomy complications

ABSTRACT

This article aimed at throwing a light on management of bile duct injuries inflicted during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The present research included 60 patients, presented with biliary complications after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. They were selected from Al-Azhar university hospitals and Domiate general Hospitals, in the period from March 2003 to March 2006. The results of this work proved that complications of laparoscopic cholecystectomy were well tolerated and the majority of them successfully managed conservatively and those needed surgical interference showed very good results. Although it has some complications, laparoscopic cholecystectomy is advocated to be the procedure of choice in the management of gall bladder diseases [stones] as its complications are tolerated and managed with conservative or surgical treatment with a success rate over 90%
