Newest firstBackground Cholecystocholedocholithiasis (CCL) presents significant management challenges. The optimal sequencing of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) when performed during the same operative session remains controversial. This study compared the efficacy, safety, and clinical outcomes of two same-session approaches: LC-first versus ERCP-first. Patients and…
Open article record in new tab ↗Background Over the past 20 years, one-stage laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) combined with laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) has gained wide acceptance for the management of cholecystocholedocholithiasis (CCL). Despite this, the two-stage endo-laparoscopic approach, consisting of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) followed by LC, remains the most commonly used strategy. This st…
Background Patients with a history of gastrectomy have a higher incidence of cholecystocholedocholithiasis (CCL) and related morbidities than the general population. However, the management of common bile duct (CBD) stones with endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography is challenging in patients after Roux-en-Y or Billroth II reconstruction because of the altered gastrointestinal anatomy. The aim of the curre…
Objective This study was performed to compare the outcomes of laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) after failed endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) versus primary LCBDE for managing cholecystocholedocholithiasis. Methods We retrospectively analyzed data from 59 patients who underwent LCBDE during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) for managing cholecystocholedocholithiasis from Januar…
Background Previous gastrectomy can lead to an increased incidence of cholecystocholedocholithiasis (CCL) and increased morbidity rate. However, the appropriate treatment strategy for patients with CCL and a history of gastrectomy remains unclear. Methods We performed a retrospective cohort study of patients with CCL and a history of gastrectomy who underwent either one-stage laparoscopic common bile duct (CBD) ex…
