Abstract
Two cases of amputation neuroma of the cystic duct are reported. In both instances, significant symptoms were totally relieved by excision of the neuroma. Review of the literature reveals at least twenty similar cases with the same results. Emphasis is placed on the importance of considering this diagnosis in postcholecystectomy patients after all the usual causes of right upper quadrant symptoms have been ruled out.Entities:
