All are true about bile duct injury except
Most benign strictures follow iatrogenic bile duct injury Most commonly during laparoscopic cholecystectomy Incidence of bile duct injury during open cholecystectomy is 0.1-0.2 % Incidence of bile duct injury during laparoscopic cholecystectomy is 0.3-0.85 % Ref: Sabiston 20th edition Pgno : 1501-1504
Incidence is equal in laparoscopic and open cholecystectomy
After experience of 20 cases, bile duct injury rate Decreases
Errors leading to Laparoscopic bile duct injuries stem from misperception, not errors of skill, knowledge or judgement
Primary cause of error in most cases is visual Perceptual illusion
