Abstract

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the gold standard for treating calculous cholecystitis. Many a times the procedure may be associated with rupture of the gall bladder and spillage of gall stones and sludge into the peritoneal cavity. The complication of spilled or dropped gall stones in the peritoneal cavity is not fully documented. This is because majority of the cases go unreported. The possible natural history and management of dropped gall stones is discussed in this article.
