[Ascaridiasis as an incidental finding after intraoperative cholangiography during a laparoscopic cholecystectomy].
We report a case of biliary ascariasis which was detected fortuitously during a routine intraoperative cholangiography following laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The diagnosis was confirmed by the finding of worm eggs in the faeces. We were able to discharge the patient on the 15th postoperative day after antihelmintic treatment.
