[Postoperative hemobilia. Apropos of a case].
Postoperative hemobilia after iatrogenic trauma to the hepatobiliary area is rare. We report a case of hemobilia which occurred after operative trauma during cholecystectomy. Exploratory laparotomy 9 years after the initial procedure provided the diagnosis. Suture of the fistule formed between the arterial vessels and the biliary duct was successful. We review the etiologies, diagnoses and therapeutic measures indicated in postoperative hemobilia.
