ESPINOSA BRITO, Alfredo Darío  y  ESPINOSA ROCA, Alfredo Alberto. Postcholecystectomy syndrome: a common but scarcely studied condition. Rev cubana med [online]. 2014, vol.53, n.3, pp. 337-347. ISSN 0034-7523.

Comments are provided on the main clinical aspects of the postcholecystectomy syndrome, the difficulties involved in its comprehension and treatment, and the scant reference to this condition in conventional undergraduate and graduate syllabuses. Emphasis is made on the growing number of patients undergoing minimal access videolaparoscopic cholecystectomy, a potential proportion of whom will develop the syndrome and request medical care.

Palabras clave : postcholecystectomy syndrome; cholelithiasis; videolaparoscopy.
