The case of a series of grave complications after a laparoscopic cholecystectomy is reported: a common bile duct section diagnosed rather late, hemoperitoneum, inappropriate common bile duct reconstruction and late anastomic leakage, stenosis of an hepatico-jejunal anastomosis, haemorrhage through the external biliary drainage and iterating sepsis. The final outcome was good. The stenotic hepatico-jejunal anastomosis was dilated by a Gianturco self-expanding prosthesis percutaneously placed. As an evidence, this alternative treatment is only exceptional, the treatment of choice for postsurgical benign strictures being surgical repair.
