Dr. Amit R. Patel, Dr. Keval J. Sansiya

Abstract :

 Gallbladder perforation during laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a reasonably common problem and may result in spilled and lost gallstones. Though uncommon, these stones may lead to significant complications. 25 patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy with intra operative Gallbladder contents spillage from July 2012 to December 2014, were studied. 16 patients had only bile spillage while 7 patients had bile/mucus/pus with stone spillage. On follow up 20% patients developed complication, 3 patients had port site wound infection, 1 had intra abdominal abscess, 1 had sinus tract formation. Clear documentation and patient awareness of lost gallstones is of utmost importance, as this may enable prompt recognition and treatment of any complications.
