Background:

Operative cholangiography is a valuable tool during cholecystectomy.
Current methods often require complex catheter securing techniques.

Purpose of the Study:

To describe a simple, effective method for securing a cholangiogram catheter.
To evaluate the safety and applicability of this new technique.

Main Methods:

A novel technique for catheter retention within the cystic duct during operative cholangiography is presented.
The method avoids the need for sutures or ties to secure the catheter.

Main Results:

The technique was successfully employed in over 250 patients undergoing cholecystectomy.
