Facts (generated by robot; please edit if you find it inaccurate)
- True absence of the cystic duct is extremely rare[3] and if the duct is not seen is more likely to be hidden.
- After laparoscopic exploration of the common bile duct, or when a patient has acute cholecystitis, the cystic duct is sometimes edematous and too large to be ligated safely with an Endoclip.
- The better practice is to pull the bas 190 e of the gallbladder to the patient's right so that the cystic duct is perpendicular to the common bile duct.
- The mucous membrane of the cystic duct is thrown into a spiral fold with a core of smooth muscle.
- Patency of the cystic duct A blocked cystic duct is the commonest cause of repeated failure to obtain a shadow after oral cholecystography and always indicates a pathological gallbladder.
