Popis:	After the first successful laparoscopic cholecystectomy in Europe by Phillipe Mouret, the method quickly became established all over the world. In the meantime, its advantages and complications have been identified. In rare cases, major vascular injuries occur as serious and deadly complications of laparoscopic surgery. We present the case of a patient with a sizable pseudoaneurysm of the abdominal aorta that was identified 5 months after the performance of a laparoscopic cholecystectomy at another hospital. Thereafter, we review the literature in search of some methods that can be used to avoid vascular injuries.
