Mirizzi syndrome: a challenging diagnosis. Case report
Mirizzi Syndrome (MS), a rare complication of gallstones causing bile duct obstruction, presents diagnostic challenges. This case highlights a successful surgical treatment of MS with a cholecysto-biliary fistula.
Area of Science:
- Gastroenterology
- Hepatobiliary Surgery
- Surgical Case Reports
Background:
- Mirizzi Syndrome (MS) is an uncommon complication of chronic gallstone disease.
- It involves common bile duct (CBD) obstruction due to gallstone impaction in the cystic duct or gallbladder neck.
- Preoperative diagnosis of MS is challenging, with over 50% diagnosed intraoperatively.
