What is Laparoscopic choledochal cyst excision?
Laparoscopic choledochal cyst excision is a minimally invasive surgical procedure performed to remove a choledochal cyst. A choledochal cyst is a rare congenital (present from birth) or acquired abnormal dilation of the bile ducts within the liver or leading from the liver to the small intestine (common bile duct).
The laparoscopic approach involves using specialized instruments and a laparoscope, which is a thin, flexible tube with a camera and light source attached to it. The surgeon makes small incisions in the abdominal wall and inserts the laparoscope and other instruments through these incisions to access the cyst and surrounding area.
