CBD. Normal anatomy.
 Duct clear on choledochoscopy.
T tube cholangiogram Day 7 post op
 Findings: Two retained stones in Rt duct system.
T tube cholangiogram
Management





Percutaneous approach to stone clearance
Modified “Burhenne technique” – push.
T –tube track.
Duct cannulation per T tube track. Catheter –wire contrast
technique
Over the wire Fogarty Balloon stone pull - push to duodenum.

Push
External Drain After Modified Burhenne Technique
Management


Overnight external drain
Check cholangiogram following morning.
 Findings: Duct clear. External drain removal
 LFT’S normal.
Discussion

Last 30 years have seen major advances in the
management of gallstone disease, which in the U.S.
alone, costs over 6 billion dollars per annum to treat.

In patients who have cholecystectomy for gallbladder
stones, approximately 10% to 18% also have common
bile duct (CBD) stones.

Pathogenesis
 CBD Stones


Primary CBD stones
 Bilirubin is dominant component.
Secondary CBD Stones
 Descend from the gallbladder
 Cholesterol is dominant component.

Clinical Presentation


Asymptomatic
Symptomatic
 Biliary colic with pale stools, dark-colored urine and pruritis.

Cholangitis or gallstone pancreatitis.

Acute obstructive cholangitis is a life-threatening complication
caused by an infection secondary to biliary obstruction.

Management Options– CBD Stones

Open cholecystectomy + CBD exploration.

ERCP + Endoscopic Sphincterotomy (followed by
cholecystectomy – most frequently used).

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy + Laparoscopic CBD
exploration – in specialized centers.

Choledochoscopy at laparoscopy or percutaneous
choleydochoscopy or choleydochoscopy through T tube.
CBD stones

ERCP has become a popular technique to clear CBD stones.

Currently in the laparoscopic era studies have shown that
laparoscopic treatment of CBD stones is possible and is
potentially as effective as ERCP.

This is most commonly done by a transcystic approach, though
evidence of success in large volume cohorts with a more
technically demanding laparoscopic Choledochotomy is
emerging .
(Fletcher 1994 ;Cuschieri 1996; Lezoche 1996)
ERCP

Despite the fact that therapeutic ERCP is increasingly being
used to manage biliary tract diseases, the procedure remains
compounded by two persistent problems: failure of successful
biliary cannulation, and post ERCP-pancreatitis (PEP).

PTC and guide-wire cannulation has been proposed as a
simple way to avoid PEP.

Management – CBD Stones

Burhenne technique
 Treatment of retained CBD stones found on T tube
cholangiography
 Technique modified by ERCP and sphincterotomy practice
 Percutaneous extraction or duodenal deposition under
fluoroscopic control. Catheter –wire – contrast - balloon
 Approach depends on ? +/- sphincterotomy
 Percutaneous sphincteroplasty - alternative

Management – CBD Stones


Percutaneous therapy is the option before resorting to surgery.
Fluoroscopically-guided extraction of resident calculi through a
sinus tract T tube (Kher tube) is a well-established procedure.
If no T tube is in place, a transhepatic approach may be attempted.

endoscopic ERCPprocedure

Rendez-vous guide-wire technique

The PTC guide-wire technique seems to reduce the incidence
of post-ERCP pancreatitis in the elderly as compared to the
conventional contrast technique, but does not appear to
improve the primary success rate for biliary cannulation
during ERCP in this population.

Take Home Message
CBD Stones associated with 10-18 % of patients
undergoing cholecystectomy.
 Advanced endoscopic & laparoscopic
techniques have revolutionized management.
 PTC and IR (guide wire cannulation) are still successful
techniques for retained stones.
