Cystic duct\/gall bladder remnant calculi is a causative factor. We present our experience with the laparoscopic management of cystic duct remnant calculi.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>PATIENTS AND METHODS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We managed 15 patients with cystic duct remnant calculi from 1996 to 2007 in our institute. All these patients had earlier undergone laparoscopic subtotal cholecystectomy at our centre. They were successfully managed by laparoscopic excision of the remnant.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>RESULTS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The mean duration between first and second surgery was 8.35 months (range, 6\u201310.7 months). The mean operating time was 103.5 min (range, 75\u2013132 min). Duration of hospital stay was 4\u201312 days. There was a higher incidence of remnant duct calculi following laparoscopic subtotal cholecystectomy than conventional laparoscopic cholecystectomy 13\/310 (4.19%) versus 2\/9590 (0.02%). The morbidity was 13.33%, while there were no conversions and no mortality.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>CONCLUSIONS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Leaving behind a cystic duct stump for too long predisposes stone formation, while dissecting too close to the common bile duct and right hepatic artery in acute inflammatory conditions is dangerous. We believe that the former is a wiser policy to follow, as cystic duct remnant calculi are easier to manage than common bile duct or vessel injury. Laparoscopic excision of the remnant is effective, especially when performed by experienced laparoscopists. \u2018T\u2019-tube is used to canulate the common bile duct in case the tissue is friable. Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreaticography is the imaging modality of choice, and is mandatory.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1308\/003588409x358980","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,12,29]],"date-time":"2008-12-29T20:12:09Z","timestamp":1230581529000},"page":"25-29","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":80,"title":["Laparoscopic Management of Remnant Cystic Duct Calculi: A Retrospective Study"],"prefix":"10.1308","volume":"91","author":[{"given":"Chinnusamy","family":"Palanivelu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"GEM Hospital and Postgraduate Institute Ramnathapuram, Coimbatore, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Muthukumaran","family":"Rangarajan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"GEM Hospital and Postgraduate Institute Ramnathapuram, Coimbatore, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Priyadarshan Anand","family":"Jategaonkar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"GEM Hospital and Postgraduate Institute Ramnathapuram, Coimbatore, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Madhupalayam Velusamy","family":"Madankumar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"GEM Hospital and Postgraduate Institute Ramnathapuram, Coimbatore, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Natesan Vijay","family":"Anand","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"GEM Hospital and Postgraduate Institute Ramnathapuram, Coimbatore, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"171","reference":[{"key":"b1","first-page":"36","volume":"51","author":"Shaw C","year":"2004","journal-title":"Hepatogastroenterology"},{"key":"b2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00000658-194707000-00004"},{"key":"b3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02800896"},{"key":"b4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1365-2168.1998.00749.x"},{"key":"b5","first-page":"814","volume":"33","author":"Clemente G","year":"2001","journal-title":"Endoscopy"},{"key":"b6","first-page":"56","volume":"116","author":"Sitenko VM","year":"1976","journal-title":"Vestn Khir Im I I Grek"},{"key":"b7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00000658-196603000-00009"},{"key":"b8","first-page":"2397","volume":"138","author":"Rozses I","year":"1997","journal-title":"Orv Hetil"},{"key":"b9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1089\/lap.2006.16.482"},{"key":"b10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1089\/lps.1993.3.513"},{"key":"b11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF00190098"},{"key":"b12","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Cuschieri A, Berci G.\n                      Laparoscopic Biliary Surgery\n                      1992;
