Tubercular abdominal abscess following laparoscopic cholecystectomy: case report.

ABSTRACT

As laparoscopic cholecystectomy has become one of the most commonly performed operations, radiologists increasingly encounter complications resulting from these. Late abdominal abscesses developing as a result of dropped gallstones albeit unusual, have been described. Abdominal wall tuberculosis following laparoscopy has also been reported. We report a rare case of intraabdominal and abdominal wall abscesses of tubercular aetiology associated with dropped stones following laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
