Objective To study the effect of laparoscopic common bile duct exploration via choledochotomy and T tube drainage.
Metheods Laparoscopic exploration of common bile duct with choledochoscopy via choledochotomy was performed in 105 patients, T tube was placed in all patients with laparoscopic suturing technique.
Results Except negative exploration in 2 cases, duct clearance was achieved in 99 per cent (102/103) of patients.
Conclusion Laparoscopic exploratoin of common bile duct via choledochotomy and T tube drainage is one of the safe and effective management options for common bile duct calculi.
