Dropped gallstone as a nidus of intra-abdominal abscess complicated by empyema.

Dustin J Roberts1, Helen M Chun.   

Abstract

We describe a patient who developed an intra-abdominal abscess and empyema from a dropped gallstone at the time of laparoscopic cholecystectomy 1.5 years ago. As minimally invasive surgeries become conventional, clinicians should be aware of this increasingly common complication.
