The gallstones are normally found proximal to the left and right hepatic ducts.
2.
The cystic duct unites with the common hepatic duct to become the common bile duct.
3.
The common hepatic duct is about 6mm in diameter in adults, with some variation.
4.
The liver produces the bile, which then flows through the hepatic ducts into the gallbladder.
5.
Bile is secreted by the liver into small ducts that join to form the common hepatic duct.
6.
The cystic duct leaves the gallbladder and joins with the common hepatic duct to form the common bile duct.
7.
An uncommon but potentially serious complication is injury to the common bile duct, which connects the cystic and common hepatic ducts to the duodenum.
8.
This form of the cystic artery does not pass through the hepatobiliary triangle and has been found located both anteriorly and posteriorly to the common hepatic duct.
9.
The neck tapers and connects to the biliary tree via the cystic duct, which then joins the common hepatic duct to form the common bile duct.
10.
With a second grasper, the gallbladder infundibulum is retracted laterally to expose and open Calot's Triangle ( cystic artery, cystic duct, and common hepatic duct ).
