Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology and Hepatology
  • Interventional Endoscopy
  • Surgical Techniques

Context:

  • Patients with common bile duct diseases often require intervention.
  • Transpapillary approaches are not suitable for all patients.
  • Minimally invasive techniques are preferred to reduce patient morbidity.

Purpose:

  • To describe a modified percutaneous transcholecystic approach (PTCS) for managing common bile duct (CBD) diseases.
  • To present a technique that reduces treatment duration and minimizes patient injury.
  • To highlight the versatility of PTCS for various diagnostic and therapeutic interventions.

Summary:

  • The percutaneous transcholecystic approach (PTCS) is detailed for CBD diseases unsuitable for transpapillary methods.
  • This technique facilitates lithotripsy of CBD stones, endoscopic biopsy, endoprosthesis management, and percutaneous papillotomy.
