SURGISIS-assisted surgical site control in the delayed repair of a complex bile duct injury after laparoscopic cholecystectomy

摘要

Although laparoscopic cholecystectomy has revolutionized the surgical approach to patients with gallbladder disease, it has also brought a marked increase in the incidence of complex and serious bile duct injuries. Many of these major injuries represent a major technical challenge for even the most seasoned hepatobiliary-trained surgeon. Herein, we present a case outlining the algorithmic treatment approach for delayed-presentation complex biliary injury and report on the novel use of small intestinal submucosal biomaterial for surgical site control in the staged repair of a complex biliary injury (Strasberg E4) after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
