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

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.

Laparoscopic common bile duct exploration
Surgical Endoscopy, 2017In recent years, laparoscoscopic 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 ...

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.

Laparoscopic Common Bile Duct Exploration
Journal of Laparoendoscopic Surgery, 1991Operative common bile duct exploration, performed in conjunction with cholecystectomy, has been considered the treatment of choice for choledocholithiasis in the presence of an intact gallbladder. With the advent of laparoscopic cholecystectomy, the management of common bile duct stones has been affected.

Primary common bile duct stones
World Journal of Surgery, 1978AbstractPrimary or stasis stones in the common duct are a distinct clinical, anatomical, and pathological entity. In the older patient with chills, fever, and jaundice, it is axiomatic that a primary or stasis stone will be found in a common duct that measures 20 mm or more in diameter.

Laparoscopic Common Bile Duct Exploration
Annals of Surgery, 2008To describe the technique of laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) with high clearance rates, low morbidity, and mortality rates.LCBDE is well accepted by patients because treatment is obtained during the same anesthesia. If one stage therapy for gallstones and common bile duct stones provides success rates equivalent to those of the ...

LAPAROSCOPIC COMMON BILE DUCT EXPLORATION
Australian and New Zealand Journal of Surgery, 1993Twenty‐one patients underwent laparoscopic common bile duct exploration during a 9 month period. Ten had stones flushed after ampullary dilatation. Seven had stones removed with a Dormier basket and one had direct common duct incision with T‐tube insertion.
