title: [Neuroma of the cystic nerve stump. No explanation for post-cholecystectomy pain].
abstract: The investigation of 20 clinical patients and the autopsy material of 15 cases showed that neuromas of the cystic duct stump following cholecystectomy represent a regular pathomorphologic condition and have no correlation with any postoperative symptoms. Identical morphologic alterations can also be found on arterial stumps after resection of abdominal organs. Therefore, we suggest eliminating the cystic duct neuroma from the list of possible causes of symptoms after cholecystectomy.
