Hemorrhage, specifically pseudoaneurysmal bleeds, can occur weeks after laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial for managing this rare but serious complication.
Area of Science:
- Gastroenterology
- Surgical Complications
- Vascular Surgery
Background:
- Post-laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) patients may present with severe abdominal pain and shock in the first or second week.
- Common diagnoses like biliary leak or vascular injury are less likely; hemoperitoneum is often overlooked in favor of pancreatitis, choledocholithiasis, or sepsis.
- Delayed diagnosis of hemoperitoneum can lead to severe consequences.
