1/1. Iatrogenic injury in videolaparoscopic cholecystectomy: difficult surgical correction biliary tract.

    Two cases of biliary tract serious lesions during videolaparoscopic cholecystectomy are reported. In the first case of lithiasic cholecystitis there had been a complete damage of the common biliary duct; in the second case there had been a double main biliary duct binding with removal of a biliary tract segment. In both cases a biliary confluence-jejunal anastomosis with Roux-en-Y loop was made up. In the first one the operation was difficult because of the main bile duct's fragility and modest expansion. In the second one the presence of a secondary biliary duct in gallbladder fossa not recognized, but drained outside with a common drainage placed during the operation prevented appearance of jaundice with dilatation of biliary ducts. It was heavily conditioned performing confluence-jejunal anastomosis with Roux-en-Y loop. The post-operative course was characterized by appearance of an external biliary fistula which has spontaneously disappeared. One year later, neither of the two patients had any stenosis or cholangitis problems.
