    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Surgical Pathology

    Context:

    • Postcholecystectomy syndrome (PCS) presents a diagnostic challenge following gallbladder removal.
    • Understanding the diverse etiologies and pathophysiology of PCS is crucial for effective patient management.

    Purpose:

    • To analyze the etiology and pathophysiology of postcholecystectomy syndrome.
    • To present a series of 35 PCS cases, detailing therapeutic strategies and outcomes.
    • To re-evaluate the significance of the cystic stump syndrome in PCS.

    Summary:

    • The study reviews the causes and mechanisms of PCS.
    • Thirty-five patient cases were analyzed, focusing on treatment approaches and results.
    • Findings suggest that associated pathologies, rather than solely the cystic stump, are frequently implicated in PCS.

    Impact:

    • This research refines the understanding of PCS, emphasizing multifactorial causes.
    • It provides valuable insights for clinicians in diagnosing and managing patients experiencing symptoms after cholecystectomy.
    • The findings may lead to revised diagnostic algorithms and treatment protocols for PCS.
