Laparoscopic common bile duct exploration
Irish Journal of Medical Science, 1992Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is now the standard approach to gallbladder disease. While laparoscopic cholecystectomy offers many advantages over the conventional laparotomy procedure one of its drawbacks is that a synchronous common bile duct exploration, for so long a cornerstone of management of choledocholithiasis, is not yet widely practised ...

Primary common bile duct carcinoid
Gastrointestinal Radiology, 1979Endoscopic retrograde cholangiography was performed in a 32-year-old man with recurrent episodes of painless jaundice. There was demonstration of a large intraluminal mass causing partial obstruction of the common bile duct. The lesion proved to be a primary carcinoid tumor of the bile duct.

Laparoscopic common bile duct exploration
Langenbeck's Archives of Surgery, 2002In recent years, laparoscopic common bile duct exploration has become the procedure of choice in the management of choledocholithiasis in several laparoscopic centers. The increasing interest for this laparoscopic approach is due to the development of instrumentation and technique, allowing the procedure to be performed safely, and it is also the ...

Migrating common bile duct stones
Digestive Diseases and Sciences, 1981In this case report a rare complication of choledocholithiasis is presented. Gallstones originally demonstrated in the common bile duct were documented to migrate into the pancreatic duct and in so doing produce acute pancreatitis. This observation lends further support to the etiological association between gallstones and acute pancreatitis.

Laparoscopic Common Bile Duct Exploration
World Journal of Surgery, 1999Abstract.Since the introduction of laparoscopic cholecystectomy, the management of common bile duct (CBD) stones has undergone significant change. Preoperative endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) with sphincterotomy is now routinely done in cases where the diagnosis of choledocholithiasis is suspected preoperatively, with clearance of

Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Clinics of North America, 1995
Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) is a sensitive and specific modality for the detection of choledocholithiasis. In experienced hands, it can be completely effective in almost all patients without significant risk. Prospective studies have shown that the sensitivity and specificity of EUS for the detection of choledocholithiasis rival that of ERCP.

Reexploration of Common Bile Duct
Archives of Surgery, 1965REEXPLORATION of the common bile duct often is a frustrating procedure and not infrequently is associated with serious complications. This is a report of 20 re-explorations of a total of 413 bile duct explorations performed in St. Luke's Hospital from 1953 through 1963.

Asymptomatic common bile duct stones
European Journal of Gastroenterology & Hepatology, 2000Patients with asymptomatic bile duct stones exhibit typical signs, such as elevated liver function tests, dilated bile ducts on ultrasound, a history of jaundice, or pancreatitis. The incidence of asymptomatic bile duct stones is about 10%, but up to 2% of patients show no signs of the disease.

Ultrasonography and CT were done in a case of obstructive jaundice. Ultrasonography showed gallstones and a dilated common bile duct; CT revealed multiple hyperdense lesions in the liver, gallbladder calculus, and a dilated common bile duct, which terminated abruptly in an apparent pancreatic mass.
