Abstract
MONTIEL-ROA, Arnaldo; AGUILERA-MAIDANA, Domingo Javier; PANE-NUNEZ, Mariana and MASI-MIRANDA, Alma Liliana. INJURY OF BILE DUCTS AS A COMPLICATION OF A CHOLECYSTECTOMY. Rev. Cir. Parag. [online]. 2017, vol.41, n.2, pp.25-26. ISSN 2307-0420. https://doi.org/10.18004/sopaci.agosto.25-26.
Surgical injury of the bile ducts is an accident that can occur during a bile tree surgery. Its incidence increased in the last decade with the extension of the use of laparoscopic surgery. Its frequency reaches 0.2% of all cholecystectomies according to several series. The early diagnosis favors the chances of a quick repair and with a better prognosis for the patient. We present the case of a 44-year-old woman who presented jaundice in the course of her post-operative conventional cholecystectomy. A complete section of the biliary tract was found at IMR at the confluence level. We performed reintervention with jejunal hepatic bypass with manual suture with good evolution.
