Abstract:
Last years in the clinic in diagnosis and treatment of choledocholithiasis choledochofibroscopy is applied widely while performing an open or laparoscopic intervention and while introduction of choledochoscope through external biliary fistula as well. Best results were achieved in those patients, in whom it was possible to evacuate all concrements through ductus cysticus. Introduction of biliary stent have permitted to perform clippage of ductus cysticus without making external drainage, securing rapid rehabilitation of patients.

Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a diagnostic procedure that combines endoscopy and fluoroscopy to diagnose and treat conditions related to the bile ducts, pancreatic ducts, and gallbladder.

ERCP is both diagnostic and therapeutic, offering the ability to visualize and treat identified problems in one session.

Additionally, patients with only one kidney or those who cannot be treated with medical management also require...
