In Italy, about 100,000 cholecystectomies are carried out annually, the majority of them laparoscopically. Complications following cholecystectomy are common and increase morbidity and cost burden. Biliary damage (0.08-0.5%), bile leak (0.42-1.1%), retained common bile duct stones (0.8-5.7%), postcholecystectomy syndrome (10-15%), and postcholecystectomy diarrhea (5-12%) are a few of the most often occurring laparoscopic cholecystectomy consequences. In many instances, endoscopy can offer conclusive management and is crucial for the identification and treatment of biliary problems. Regarding the ideal treatment strategy for biliary problems, there is no universal agreement. A skilled interdisciplinary team should therefore approach biliary problems. The surgeon must be knowledgeable on how to handle these issues. |
