Core Tip |
Although the endoscopic-first approach is the most common for common bile duct stones (CBDS) treatment, surgical management remains crucial for subsequent cholecystectomy and additional CBDS removal in cases of failed endoscopy or surgical altered anatomy. Single-step common bile duct exploration offers non-inferior outcomes and may even advantageously reduce the number of hospital admissions. Proper selection between the trans-cystic and trans-choledochal approach is essential, and mastering both techniques through practice and rehearsal is necessary. Diligent attention to surgical anatomy and every step of the procedure can help prevent and reduce specific postoperative complications. |
