A 45-year-old woman presented to another hospital with worsening abdominal pain and nausea 1 week after an uncomplicated laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Serial computed tomography imaging showed an enlarging fluid collection in the perihepatic and subcapsular spaces measuring 23×19×21cm. Initial endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and hepatobiliary iminodiacetic acid (HIDA) scan...

The rendezvous technique typically involves combined efforts of interventional radiology, endoscopy, and surgery. It can be done solely percutaneously, whereby the interventionalist gains desired access to one point in the body by approaching it from two different access sites. We present the case of a woman who underwent cholecystectomy complicated by a bile duct injury. A percutaneous rendezv...

Key Points 1. Reported complication rates for right-lobe liver donors vary widely, but are estimated to be approximately 35%, with a surgical mortality rate of approximately 0.3%. 2. Biliary complications, including leak, biloma, or stricture, are the most commonly reported morbidity in rightlobe living donors. 3. Other significant donor morbidity includes portal vein thrombosis, pulmonary embo...

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is one of the most commonly performed operations worldwide. Cystic duct is the most common site of bile leak after cholecystectomy. The treatment of choice is usually conservative. Using sufficient percutaneous drainage of the biloma cavity and endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERCP) with sphincterotomy and/or stenting, the cure rate of bile leaks is greater th...
