Core Tip We present a novel microincision technique at the cystic duct confluence during laparoscopic common bile duct exploration for pediatric choledocholithiasis. By avoiding T-tube placement, critical for active children requiring unrestricted movement and timely return to school, this approach minimizes ductal trauma, preserves biliary integrity, and accelerates recovery. A 12-year-old patient achieved rapid normalization of liver function and symptom resolution with no recurrence at the 16-month follow-up visit. This innovation addresses pediatric-specific anatomical and lifestyle challenges, offering a safer, minimally invasive alternative to conventional methods. This technique underscores the need for surgical strategies tailored to the unique needs of children.
