In this biliary episode, Chris and Mars break down the critical complications that can occur after a cholecystectomy—an essential topic for the surgery clerkship and shelf exam. They explore early post-op issues like bile leaks, bilomas, and common bile duct injuries, plus late complications like postcholecystectomy syndrome and sphincter of Oddi dysfunction. You’ll learn how to recognize key presentations, and master management strategies, including when to call for ERCP or take a patient back to the OR. Perfect for med students prepping for their surgery clerkship, NBME shelf, or USMLE Step 2 CK.
