This case study follows the medical history of a 30-year-old lady with abdominal pain, weight loss, and a cystic lesion involving the right lobe of the liver. The patient undergoes surgery, including biliary sphincterotomy and right hepatectomy, and receives post-operative treatment. Another case study involves a 40-year-old female with symptomatic cholelithiasis. The patient undergoes laparoscopic cholecystectomy but develops complications post-surgery, including an external biliary fistula. Subsequent treatments and follow-ups are discussed.
