Intraoperative injuries of the biliary tract

: Statistically speaking, the intraoperative lesions of common bile duct are rare clinical cases, but they have a high gravity potential. Our study was made on a lot of 11 operated pacients during 1995-2007 in our Clinic and it shows the tactical and technical approach used in solving these complications. The study also shows the high level of difficulty of these cases, as immediate recognition of this type of intraoperative lesions is needed. The successful evolution of these cases depends on how quickly the lesions are found and solved.
