Rare presentation of postcholecystectomy syndrome: Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography findings of remnant gallbladder
Abstract :
Post-cholecystectomy syndrome is defined as recurrent or persistent symptoms, consisting of upper abdominal pain or dyspepsia after cholecystectomy. Post-cholecystectomy syndrome occurs due to biliary and non-biliary disorders. Biliary stricture, remnant or recurrent bile calculi, strictures involving the sphincter of Oddi or biliary dyskinesia are common cause of this syndrome. Remnant gallbladder and retained calculi in the remnant gallbladder after incomplete cholecystectomy are rare cause of post-cholecystectomy syndrome. In this study, our purpose was to define findings of remnant gallbladder, which is a rare cause of post-cholecystectomy syndrome with magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography in two patients.
