Abstract:
Objective To investigate the efficacy of laparoscopic transcystic duct exploration for cholecystolithiasis complicated with stones in the non-dilated common bile duct.Methods Before the resection of the cyst,the cystic duct was cut under a laparoscope,and then a C tube was inserted for cholangiography.Stones in the common bile duct were removed under the guidance of C-arm X-ray.Then,C-tube drainage was carried out after removal of the calculi.Results The stones were completely removed in all of the 36 cases with a mean operation time of 125.4 minutes(90-150 minutes).The C-tube was withdrawn in 3 or 4 days after the operation.The mean postoperative time of this series was 4 to 7 days.The patients were followed up for 3 months,during which no patients had biliary leakage,residual stones,or stenosis or dilation of the common bile duct.Conclusions Laparoscopic transcystic duct exploration is minimally invasive,safe,and effective for cholecystolithiasis complicated with stones in the non-dilated common bile duct.
