Abstract:

Objective

To evaluate the application value of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in the treatment of common bile duct stones after cholecystectomy.

Methods

Clinical data of 76 patients with common bile duct stones after cholecystectomy who received initial ERCP in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from January 2011 to April 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The informed consents of all patients were obtained and the local ethical committee approval was received. Among them, 46 patients were male and 30 female, aged (61±13) years on average. ERCP treatment, complications and clinical effects were observed.

Results

ERCP in all 74 patients were completed successfully, whereas stone removal failed in 2 cases. The success rate of stone removal was 97%(74/76). The operation time was (98±60) min. The length of postoperative hospital stay was 2-18 d, witha median 5 d. Postoperative complications occurred in 6 cases with an incidence rate of 8%(6/76). Among them, 2 cases developed mild pancreatitis and 4 cases of infection, and all were cured after conservative treatments. 5 patients presented with postoperative recurrence of stones and received repeated ERCP treatment. The stone recurrence rate was 7%(5/74).

Conclusions

ERCP is a minimally invasive, safe and effective method for patients with common bile duct stones after cholecystectomy, which can be considered as the primary option of non-surgical treatments.
