Choledocholithiasis in infancy

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1985
Three cases of choledocholithiasis presenting with obstructive jaundice in infancy are reported. Ultrasonography demonstrated a grossly dilated common bile duct in all three cases. It failed, however, to demonstrate the calculi that were situated at the distal end of the common duct. Percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography was valuable in one patient

Bile Duct Clearance and Cholecystectomy for Choledocholithiasis: Definitive Single-Stage Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy with Intra-Operative Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) versus Staged Procedures.

Journal of Trauma and Acute Care Surgery, 2020
BACKGROUND Clinical equipoise exists regarding optimal sequencing in the definitive management of choledocholithiasis. Our current study compares sequential biliary ductal clearance and cholecystectomy at an interval to simultaneous laparoendoscopic ...

In a retrospective study of patients with ultrasonographically demonstrable choledocholithiasis, 81 stones were demonstrated in 46 patients. The majority of the stones were between 5 and 10 mm in diameter; the smallest was 2 mm and the largest 23 mm. Of the 81 stones, 64 demonstrated acoustical shadowing; 56 were located in the distal segment of the ...

Ceftriaxone Choledocholithiasis

Pediatrics, 1996
Ceftriaxone is a broad-spectrum, third-generation cephalosporin. The formation of biliary sludge and cholelithiasis after ceftriaxone administration has been reported and is thought by many to be a benign process.1-3 Despite this, cholecystectomy has been performed in symptomatic patients who have received ceftriaxone.3,4 This complication of ...

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 ...
