ABSTRACT
AIM:
To determine the incidence and types of biliary complications following laparoscopic cholecystectomy in our patients.METHODS:
The clinical records of one hundred and fifty-five patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy were reviewed.RESULTS:
Five patients developed biliary mishaps. The overall incidence of biliary complications was 3.2% (5/155). The incidence of major complications was 1.9% (3/155) and the incidence of minor biliary complications was 1.2% (2/155). In 3 out of 5 patients the mishap was attributed to developmental anomalies. Dense pericholecystic adhesions and cystic duct blow out were responsible for biliary complications in one patient each. Bilioenteric anastomosis was performed in two patients and restoration of continuity of the common hepatic duct over a T-tube was done in one patient. Side hole in an accessory duct was repaired over a T-tube and cystic duct blow out was managed with endoscopic biliary drainage alone.CONCLUSIONS:
A high index of suspicion of developmental anomalies, cautions approach in difficult cases and readiness to consider conversion to open cholecystectomy are recommended to reduce the incidence of biliary complications in laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
