Özet

The perforation of the gall bladder is the most common complication in laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). Retrieval of spilled gallstones is routine when possible. However, it Is not infrequent to leave some. Although significantly rare, abandoned gallstones may cause late and subtle symptoms and even severe intra-abdominal complications. In this study, we present a 60-year-old male patient who had an attack of acute cholecystitis and underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy 6 weeks later. A second emergency laparoscopy was performed to remove the unremoved gallstone presenting with mild complaints. Postoperative CT might locate missed gallstones in the peritoneal cavity, and early laparoscopy may prevent severe late complications.
