Core Tip

Core Tip: There have been few reports on post-hepatectomy bile duct injury (PHBDI). In this report, we present a case of PHBDI caused by the wrong choice of transection tool, such as endovascular gastrointestinal anastomosis (endo-GIA), which was successfully saved by reoperation. We wanted to draw attention to the fact that not all cases are suitable for endo-GIA transection of Glissonean pedicle.
