Sumario:Postcholecystectomy duodenal injuries are very rare complications. Early surgical intervention is a common practice due to its fatal consequences. Most of the patients with post laparoscopic cholecystectomy duodenal injury reported in literature have been successfully managed by early surgical repair. We present here a case of a 32-year-old female who underwent open cholecystectomy and had an injury in the second part of the duodenum. She was subsequently managed conservatively.
