Abstract:
Laparoscopic subtotal cholecystectomy (LSC) is considered to be a safe option in severe cholecystitis with non-discernible anatomy within the Calot's triangle where there is a potential risk of causing injury to the common bile duct. Here we present two cases of gallstone pancreatitis associated with use of an endoscopic stapler during LSC.
