title: [Secondary dilatation of the stump of the cystic duct and stone formation within it].
abstract: In the paper the authors analyze the operative material of the surgery department of the Senta Hospital in relation to the secondary expansion of the ductus cysticus stump as a complication following cholecystectomy. In relation to 727 performed cholecystectomies this complication occurred in our material in only 0.39%, which is a much lesser percentage in relation to the facts which are presented in literature. Three cases of secondary ductus cysticus stump expansion (regeneratio cholecystae) are described along with diagnostic procedures and operative protocols. As conclusions, the authors state that with cholecystectomy it is very important that the surgeon observes the basic postulates of the operative technique, i.e., that the stump of ductus cysticus must not exceed the length of 5-6 mm, that i.v. cholangiography must be done in all operations on extrahepatic passageways, and that in all cases of late postoperative biliary colics the "cysticus stump syndrome" must be taken into consideration always.
