title: Cystic duct fistula: a complication of cholecystectomy.
abstract: Two patients with postcholecystectomy cystic duct fistulas are described. Although still a most uncommon diagnosis, newer imaging procedures have facilitated recognition of this problem. Cystic duct fistulas may contribute to the subhepatic collection found in many patients postcholecystectomy.
