Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Does Floating Cyst After Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy Means?
I recently had a Lap Chole done, and the Dr. discovered a free-floating "cyst" in my abdomen which he removed to send to pathology. He said he had never seen anything like that in his 20 some years as a surgeon. I am a 37 year old healthy female. I am 5 ft 6 inches, 190 pounds. Any thoughts?
While doing cholecystetomy you Surgeon must have found a cyst without any or without much support to the cyst. This He mentioned as free floating. Usually this is never found. So this is really rare. Let us hope this is benign means not a cancer .
