Bile Causing an Acute Scrotum Immediately After Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report our experience with a patient that developed an acute right hemiscrotum immediately after undergoing an uncomplicated laparoscopic cholecystectomy for gallbladder dyskinesia. The etiology of the acute scrotal pain was due to bile which was spilled into the peritoneum after entry into the gallbladder during dissection. The bile obtained access to the right hemiscrotum via a communicating hydrocele. To the best of our knowledge this is the first report of bile causing an acute scrotum following laparoscopic surgery. A review of the current literature on the topic of the postoperative acute scrotum follows our case presentation.
