| Core Tip |
This was a prospective self-controlled study with 47 patients seeking to determine whether saline irrigation can also improve common bile duct (CBD) clearance after mechanical lithotripsy. Irrigation with 100 mL of saline may not clear all residual CBD stones after mechanical lithotripsy, especially in patients with periampullary diverticula (PAD) and/or a dilated (> 15 mm) CBD. Pigment residual stones are soft and commonly found in patients with PAD. Additional saline irrigation may be required to remove the retained stones. |
