ABSTRACT
Sub-costal port site abscess and sinus formation secondary to spilled gallstones during laparoscopic cholecystectomy is extremely rare, however such complications at umbilical port site has been described in literature. We present one such case in an elderly diabetic female. Spilled stones migrating to the port site should be kept in mind in a patient presenting with chronic discharging sinus at any of the laparoscopic port sites after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
