Laparoscopic Common Bile Duct Exploration and Choledochoduodenostomy
Case description
Choledocholithiasis ranks as a prevalent disease within hepatobiliary surgery, standing as the second most common complication after acute cholecystitis. The primary objective of choledocholithiasis is to alleviate the obstruction within the common bile duct (CBD) and restore smooth biliary tract drainage. Presently, treatment options primarily encompass endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERCP) and CBD exploration (CBDE). Despite ERCP being a mature method, its implementation carries an elevated risk of postoperative complications such as pancreatitis, cholangitis, bile leakage, and bleeding. In some cases, ERCP fails to be performed or completely clear the CBD.
