[Endoscopic treatment of choledocholithiasis].

Since its introduction 10 years ago, endoscopic removal of gallstones from the common bile duct has become a widely accepted method. The procedure is successful in approximately 90% of cases. Complications occur in 5-10%, with a reported mortality of 1-2%. Endoscopic removal of gallstones from the common bile duct appears to be the method of choice in the treatment of patients with previous cholecystectomy. Other important indications are acute cholangitis and biliary pancreatitis.

[Choledocholithiasis in a gallbladder without stones].

In 4 out of 190 patients, who underwent a cholecystectomy, stones were only found in the common bile duct and none in the gallbladder. The radiological data of these 4 patients were retrospectively analysed. In 2/3 patients sonography showed a dilatation of the common bile duct, whereas stones in the common bile duct were shown by IVC in 2/2 patients, ERCP in 3/3 patients and PTC in 1/1 patients. In 1/3 patients also, in whom an ERCP had been performed, stones were suspected in the gallbladder, but could not be verified during cholecystectomy.
