Title Of Article :
Diagnosing the duct of Luschka injury at magnetic resonance imaging with hepatospecific contrast agents after laparoscopic cholecystectomy
Abstract :
Bile duct injury is a serious complication of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). Bile leakage from accessory duct of Luschka is very rare. Gadolinium ethoxybenzyl diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (Gd-EOB-BOPTA) is a hepatospecific contrast agent that provides functional biliary imaging. In this study, we present a patient with bile leakage from duct of Luschka after LC. Magnetic resonance imaging with hepatospecific contrast agents can detect bile leakage from accessory duct of Luschka especially in LC patients.
