ABSTRACT
Introduction: On February 1991 the first laparoscopic cholecistectomy (LC) was
performed in Cuba. Despite the benefits of this approach, bile ducts injuries (BDI)
seem to be more frequent.
Objective: To describe the behavior of the bile duct injuries in six hospitals located in
5 provinces throughout the country so as to detect deficiencies to be corrected.
Methods: A retrospective, multicenter and descriptive study of 27 bile duct injuries on
17288 LC performed in 6 university hospitals throughout the country. The primary data
was collected through a 13 point-questionnaire applied to every injured patient, and
equal for all the centers.
Results: The percentage of BDI in this series was low (0.15 %). In 59.2 % of cases,
the diagnosis was made postoperatively and almost 63 % were severe Strasberg's
type E lesions. The most used repair techniques were bile digestive derivations, but
lesions identified transoperatively were in most of the cases treated with ''T'' tube
repairs. Major complications occurred in 25.9 % of patients.
The percentage of lesions in our study is low, but they were mostly
severe. The postsurgical stenosis was mainly related with the wrong selection of the
primary repair technique.
