Brief Summary

Patients with complex biliary stone disease are challenging to treat. The investigator present their experience in using urological interventions to treat challenging biliary stones. Methods: Fifteen patients with biliary calculi underwent 21 interventions using either extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL), percutaneous transhepatic choledochoscopy, percutaneous transcystic choledochoscopy, or a combination of these.

Study Population

Most patients were elderly (median age, 60 years). The male-to-female ratio was higher than the norm for biliary stones (1:1.4). The most common reasons for failure of conventional endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) were high American Society of Anesthesia (ASA) score (8 patients 53%), technical failure of ERCP (4 patients, 27%), previous Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (two patients, 13%), and post-common bile duct (CBD) injury with T-tube insertion (one patient, 7%). The stone sites were the CBD, gallbladder, and intrahepatic bile duct in nine (60%), three (20%), and three (20%) patients, respectively
