Accessory cystic duct identification in laparoscopic cholecystectomy
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report the case of a 53-year-old lady who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy and was found to have an accessory cystic duct close to the fundus. Careful dissection of the liver bed was done and the duct clipped preventing a bile leak. The presence of such ducts though rare should be identified during surgery to prevent potential complications.

A case of an anomalous biliary tract diagnosed preoperatively
We describe a 48-year-old man with cholecystolithiasis whose preoperative magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) scan showed that the right accessory hepatic duct branching from the cystic duct dominated an anterior segment of the right hepatic lobe. We observed the right accessory hepatic duct using intraoperative cholangiography, and we were able to perform laparoscopic cholecyste...
متن کاملCystic duct variation detected by near-infrared fluorescent cholangiography during laparoscopic cholecystectomy
Near-infrared fluorescent cholangiography (NIRFC) is an emerging technique for easy intraoperative recognition of biliary anatomy. We present a case of cystic duct variation detected by NIRFC which had a potential risk for biliary injury if not detected. A 32-year-old female was admitted to the Seoul St. Mary's Hospital for surgery for an incidental gallbladder polyp. We performed laparoscopic ...

متن کاملArtery to Cystic Duct: A Consistent Branch of Cystic Artery Seen in Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
Uncontrolled arterial bleeding during laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a serious problem and may increase the risk of bile duct damage. Therefore, accurate identification of the anatomy of the cystic artery is very important. Cystic artery is notoriously known to have a highly variable branching pattern. We reviewed the anatomy of the cystic artery and its branch to cystic duct as seen through t...
