Abstract:
A series of 172 lithiasis of the common bile duct has been analysed. Priority has always been given to the external drainage by a T tube. It seems to be the simplest method, with the lowest morbidity. 6 patients, as 3.48% are deceased precociously after the intervention in keeping with the gravity of the lesions and the general state.
