Cholecystectomy N2 - Although the cystic artery commonly originates from a right hepatic artery, variations in the origin and course of the cystic artery occur in 24.5% of people. The explanation for the variations of the cystic artery is found in the developmental pattern of the biliary system. Thus, the various origins of the cystic artery and its course concerning the Calotâ??s triangle require the attention of surgeons in order to avoid iatrogenic injury of the bile ducts and vessels. Hence, the course of the cystic artery regarding hepatobiliary ducts has also to be noted by surgeons during cholecystectomy. ER -
