'Colleaguography' in place of cholangiography, to prevent bile duct injury during laparoscopic cholecystectomy

Journal of Minimal Access Surgery, 2019
Bile duct injury (BDI) is not uncommon during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). Intra-operative cholangiography (IOC) has been recommended to reduce the risk of BDI during LC. Facilities for IOC are, however, scarcely available in India.
