Delayed Extrahepatic Biliary Leak: A Rare Presentation 9 Years Post-Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy.

BACKGROUND Biliary leaks are an important cause of the acute abdomen condition, carrying significant levels of morbidity and mortality. They are most commonly the result of acute iatrogenic or blunt trauma, with an identifiable cause. In comparison, spontaneous and delayed biliary leaks are rare phenomena occurring in the absence of recent surgery, endoscopic intervention, or trauma.
