    Author: Cullis SN, Jeffery PC, McLauchlan G, Bornman PC.
    Journal: Surg Laparosc Endosc; 1992 Dec; 2(4):337-8. PubMed ID: 1341558.
    Abstract:
    A case is presented of small bowel obstruction due to an intra-abdominal abscess as a complication of stones left behind during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. It is suggested that a concerted effort be made to remove all stones spilled in the peritoneal cavity and that a therapeutic course of broad-spectrum antibiotic be instituted.
