Abstract

A report from the University of Catania in Italy discusses the complications that can arise after cholecystectomy, a common surgical procedure to remove the gallbladder. The report highlights various biliary-related complications, such as biliary damage, bile leak, retained common bile duct stones, postcholecystectomy syndrome, and postcholecystectomy diarrhea. The researchers emphasize the importance of endoscopy in managing and treating these complications, but note that there is no universally agreed-upon treatment strategy. The report concludes that surgeons should be knowledgeable about how to handle these issues, and recommends a multidisciplinary approach to biliary problems. [Extracted from the article]
