Core Tip The purpose of this case report is to highlight the feasibility of percutaneous transhepatic cholangioscopy and lithotripsy (PTCSL) as therapy for biliary obstruction in patients with surgically altered anatomy which makes them unsuitable for conventional endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography used for emergency biliary drainage provides the access required for PTCSL, so it is reasonable to consider PTCSL in such patients. PTCSL attractively combines radiological and endoscopic techniques already established in most HPB units. Advanced endoscopic options are not widely available, and surgical options are limited as such patients are poor surgical candidates. We review the literature to compare our cases to previously reported cases of PTCSL.
