Abstract

Laparoscopic subtotal cholecystectomy is a feasible alternative to conversion to open when safe identification of ductal anatomy/critical angle of safety is unable to be achieved. It is typically a decision made intraoperatively while performing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. This chapter describes indications, essential steps, variations, and complications of this procedure. It provides a detailed template operative note for the procedure.
