NCT02461147

Brief Summary

Initial cholecystectomy with intraoperative cholangiogram, followed if required by ERCP, has been implemented at the investigators institution as the standard management strategy for patients at intermediate risk of common bile duct stone migration, following a randomized controlled trial previously published by the same investigators team. The aim of this study is to prospectively analyze the outcomes of this strategy.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Length of hospital stay [days]

    1-100 days

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Number of common bile duct investigations [N]

    Anytime during hospital stay, an expected average of 7 days

  • Common bile duct clearance rate [%]

    This outcome will be assessed after each ERCP performed during hospital stay, an expected average of 7 days

  • Morbidity

    From admission up to 6 months after hospital discharge

Study Arms (1)

Validation cohort

All patients of the study (single group, single arm) will undergo initial cholecystectomy with intraoperative cholangiogram, followed if required by ERCP, according to the standard protocol of treatment previously implemented at the investigators institution.

Procedure: Cholecystectomy with intraoperative cholangiogram

Interventions

cf. arm/group description. This intervention is not assigned by the investigators: it is the standard treatment at the investigators institution.
