Bile leakage from subvesical bile duct (duct of Luschka) after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

During operation, meticulous observation of the gallbladder fossa should be performed after cholecystectomy. If bile leak has found post-operatively, ERCP with biliary stenting is effective. If ERCP fails, surgical treatments required. A surgeon should be aware of this anomaly of the bile duct and know about the prevention and the managements.
