Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (Gall Bladder removal)

Gall bladder surgery done laparoscopically (laparoscopic cholecystectomy) is a very common operation.  The purpose of the surgery is to remove the gall bladder.  Sometimes, the surgeon injures the common bile duct, artery, or other structure during the surgery, and does not know that he or she injured it.  This can cause very serious injuries or death.
