Abdominal wall abscess following laparoscopic cholecystectomy: an unusual late complication of lost gallstones.

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is associated with a significant risk of gallbladder perforation with spillage of bile and stones into the peritoneal cavity. The retrieval of the spilled stones is not always possible by laparoscopic technique. Majority of these cases do not have any problem in future but sometimes the lost stones lead to serious complications.
