[Gallstones in the lesser pelvis following laparoscopic cholecystectomy]

A woman aged 45 years who had undergone laparoscopic cholecystectomy a little over one year previously complained of progressive dysmenorrhoea, dyspareunia and disorder of the cycle; she also had palpable nodules in the recto-uterine pouch. At vaginal hysterectomy, 15 gallstones were found in the recto-uterine and vesicouterine pouches. Problems of radiological diagnosis in cases of gallstones in the true pelvis after laparoscopic cholecystectomy have been reported before.
