Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is widely accepted by patients and physicians despite the lack of controlled trials comparing this technology with conventional cholecystectomy. The cystohepatic ducts represent accessory bile ducts of variable size which frequently travel within the gallbladder fossa or in the posterior wall of the gallbladder. These ducts can be injured during laparoscopic cholecystectomy and can result in bile collection if transected. Recently, we have experienced two cases of injury to the bile duct during operation. One case was a transection of the accessory bile duct, the other one was an injury to the common hepatic duct. We present herein the clinical course of the two cases, in which biliary leakage, following laparoscopic cholecystectomy, was successfully managed by the end to end anastomosis of the bile duct.
