Validation of the new “Brandenburg Acute Bile Duct (BABD) injury classification” system in 106 patients with accidental bile duct injuries during cholecystectomy

Current classification systems fail to categorize all acute bile duct injuries following cholecystectomies. The BABD Classification, which is based on the anatomical location and extent of injury, allows systematic categorization of all documented acute bile duct lesions and may improve diagnostic clarity, treatment planning, and comparability in future studies.

Abstract

Current classification systems fail to categorize all acute bile duct injuries following cholecystectomies. The BABD Classification, which is based on the anatomical location and extent of injury, allows systematic categorization of all documented acute bile duct lesions and may improve diagnostic clarity, treatment planning, and comparability in future studies.
