Abstract:
Objective To report our clinical experience on laparoscopic common bile duct exploration and primary suture.Methods From March 1992 to December 2006,669 cases of laparoscopic common bile duct exploration and primary suture were carried out in our hospital.Cholangioscopic lithotomy,electrohydraulic lithotripsy,biliary dilation,bile duct drainage,or biliary stenting were performed on the patients.Results The surgeries were completed successfully in 643 of the 669 cases(96.1%).Biliary leakage was observed in 17(2.5%) cases after the operations,and was cured by nasobiliary and intra-abdominal drainage.2(0.3%) patients developed mild stenosis of the bile duct without showing any symptoms.4(0.5%) had residual stones and were cured by a second laparoscopic surgery.The fine duct fell off in 2 cases(0.3%),and was re-fixed by a re-operation.581 of the cases achieved a 6- to 48-month follow-up(mean,25.6 months),during the period,no patient developed biliary leak,and stenosis or hemorrhage of the common bile duct.Conclusion Laparoscopic common bile duct exploration and primary suture is safe and effective.
