[The treatment of severe complications of laparoscopic cholecystectomy].
The treatment of 24 cases of severe complications of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) in 1993-1998 is reported. Among them, 16 cases were from the other hospitals. The patients included 14 cases of bile duct injury, 3 cases of bile leak, 1 case of duodenal injury, 5 cases intraoperative hemorrhages, 1 case mediastinal emphysema. The data showed that bile duct injury was the most severe complication of LC. It is suggested that in order to prevent the complications a training of operators on adaptive exercise and standard intraoperative procedure should be undertaken. The diagnosis and treatment of severe complications are discussed and some useful advice is given in this paper.
