Post-cholecystectomy syndrome is a group of disorders resulting from complications of laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Here we report a case of a 59-year-old female patient with history of cholecystectomy who presented with right hypochondrium pain and bloating. Ultrasound and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatogram revealed a tubular cystic lesion with calculus in situ in the gallbladder fossa in keeping with cystic duct remnant.
