Iatrogenic porta hepatis injury is a rare but devastating surgical complication of laparoscopic cholecystectomy. There are no systematic studies examining the best treatment strategy in patients with this injury. We present a case of a 23-year-old woman with a large abscess in the right hepatic lobe due to an extreme vasculobiliary injury after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Although rare, the impact of vasculobiliary injuries after cholecystectomy highlights the need for constant alertness and prompt management in order to minimize mortality and morbidity usually associated with the routine operative procedure.
