Abstract:
Intra-peritoneal migration of abdominal drain is a rare complication. Cutting of abdominal drain and putting a colostomy bag over it is done to reduce the pain and infection and to increase the mobility of a patient, but it is also a risk factor for drain intra-peritoneal migration. This case report depicts a case of intra-peritoneal migration of abdominal drain after laparoscopic cholecystectomy and its retrieval.
