An aberrant right hepatic duct is a rare congenital anomaly of the biliary system. Failure to recognize these anomalies can result in serious complications. In this case, we present a patient who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy for chronic cholecystitis. Post-operatively she developed a bile leak for which she underwent reoperation. On re-exploration, she was discovered to have a cystic stump leak and a rare Hisatsugu type V anatomic anomaly of the right hepatic duct originating from the cystic duct. She was subsequently managed with oversewing of the cystic duct stump and drainage. This case demonstrates the importance of recognizing these rare anomalies and the challenges of management in a rural, resource-limited setting. |
