[HTML][HTML] Laparoscopic cholecystectomy for ultrasound normal gallbladders: Should we forego hepatobiliary iminodiacetic acid scans?
Results: Six-weeks post-surgery, the patient's symptoms had ceased besides one short
episode of abdominal pain. Conclusion: A LC relieved the patient's symptoms, suggesting
that negative HIDA-scans can mislead correct decisions to perform a LC. Surgeons who
receive inconclusive HIDA scan results should consult their patients, and when necessary
and agreed-upon, take an informed risk together in an attempt to improve the patient's
quality of life.
