Abstract

Objective: to study individual variability of the cystic artery and cystic duct. Material and methods. To achieve the goal of the research, 95 human organic complexes from the Grodno Regional Autopsy Bureau were dissected in accordance with Mortuary and Funeral Business Act of the Republic of Belarus No. 55-3 of 12.11.2001. While examining the complexes, the source of the cystic artery origins, their number and sources of additional arteries to the gall bladder were studied. We also examined the area of the cystic duct confluence, its diameter, length and type of structure. Results. The study revealed considerable variability of the morphometric parameters of the cystic artery and cystic duct. Conclusion. The variability of the morphometric parameters of the cystic artery and cystic duct is a basis to develop special approaches to clipping and their crossing during laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
