Abstract
Jaundice and stricture of the common hepatic duct were detected in a 53-yr-old woman 2 months after she had laparoscopic cholecystectomy for a gallstone. Then she underwent resection of the stricture part of the duct and hepaticojejunostomy which was effective. Pathological examination showed that traumatic neuroma, probably caused by bile leakage after cauterization, led to stricture of the common bile duct.
