Excision of a part of the bile duct as an iatrogenic injury typical for laparoscopic cholecystectomy - characteristics, treatment and long-term results, based on own material.

Conclusions: Excision of a part of the bile duct occurs more often during LC than OC. It is often located in the hepatic hilum. Presence of a narrow common hepatic duct is a risk factor for EPBD during LC. Large diameter hepaticojejunostomy is a reconstructive procedure that promises good long-term results.
