Abstract
Introduction: Cholecystectomy is one of the most common surgeries in the world. The gallbladder is removed due to acute or chronic cholecystitis, obstruction of the bile duct, or residual stones. In some cases, part of the gallbladder may remain in place for various reasons, including lack of access and visibility. Case Presentation: In this study, we introduced a 41-year-old male patient who, after subtotal laparoscopic cholecystectomy, showed residual symptoms of the gallbladder and underwent laparoscopic surgery to remove the remnants. Conclusions: Performing subtotal cholecystectomy surgery involves a lot of complications and costs due to the possibility of recurrence and the need for re-surgery, which should be minimized.
