Association of Periampullary Diverticula with Primary Choledocholithiasis but not with Secondary Choledocholithiasis [PDF]

open access: possibleEndoscopy, 1998
Several endoscopic studies have reported an association between periampullary diverticula and biliary calculi, but the results are inconsistent when the anatomic site of the stones is considered. The aims of our study are to evaluate the association between periampullary diverticula and gallstones according to their site and to clarify the origin of ...

The Safety and Efficacy of Laparoscopic Common Bile Duct Exploration Combined with Cholecystectomy for the Management of Cholecysto-choledocholithiasis: An Up-to-date Meta-analysis

Annals of Surgery, 2018
Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of the laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) and laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) with preoperative endoscopic sphincterotomy (pre-EST) and LC for concomitant gallstones

Endoscopic Papillotomy for Choledocholithiasis

New England Journal of Medicine, 1975
ENDOSCOPIC retrograde cholangiopancreatography has been widely accepted as a diagnostic tool in pancreatic and biliary-tract disease.1 2 3 The ability to define ductal anatomy and pathology and to pass instruments through the endoscope into the biliary tree has stimulated the development of technics for endoscopic biliary-tract surgical procedures.4 5 ...

Pathogenesis and Management of Choledocholithiasis

Surgical Clinics of North America, 1981
Stones may be formed primarily in the common bile duct or may result from the passage of gallbladder stones through the cystic duct. Unless high grade ampullary obstruction is present, biliary drainage is not recommended at the original cholecystectomy and choledocholithotomy.

Laparoscopy in cholecysto-choledocholithiasis

Best Practice & Research Clinical Gastroenterology, 2014
Gallstone disease is one of the most common problems in the gastroenterology and is associated with significant morbidity. It may present as stones in the gallbladder (cholecystolithiasis) or in the common bile duct (choledocholithiasis). At the end of the 1980s laparoscopy was introduced and first laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed in 1985 ...

Outcomes Associated With Timing of ERCP in Acute Cholangitis Secondary to Choledocholithiasis

Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology, 2018
Goals: To determine the outcomes associated with timing of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in patients with acute cholangitis due to choledocholithiasis, from a population-based study. Background: Although ERCP is the cornerstone in

Endoscopic Management of Choledocholithiasis

Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology, 1998
The first description of endoscopic sphincterotomy 25 years ago spearheaded the widespread use of endoscopic treatment of choledocholithiasis. It is largely accepted that common bile duct stone removal should be endoscopic rather than surgical in patients who have undergone previous cholecystectomy, in the high-risk surgical patient when the ...

Laparoscopic management of choledocholithiasis

Surgical Endoscopy, 1994
The authors report on a group of 114 patients with common bile duct (CBD) stones who were treated by laparoscopic surgery. Management through the cystic duct was considered the first option.

Cholelithiasis and choledocholithiasis in a cat

New Zealand Veterinary Journal, 1978
Abstract A 14-year-old male domestic short-haired cat was examined because of anorexia, depression and intermittent vomiting. Blood chemical analyses indicated the presence of liver disease and radio-opaque masses were seen in the region of the gall bladder on plain radiographs of the abdomen. Cholecystography was unsuccessful.
