Abstract
The most common management of choledocholithiasis involves the two-step method that involves the use of pre-operative endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) followed by laparoscopic cholecystectomy in six weeks’ time. But since the introduction of laparoscopic surgery, laparoscopic common bile duct exploration has been used as a single step method to treat this condition. Another method involves intraoperative endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and laparoscopic cholecystectomy in the same setting. As there is no consensus on management, we have conducted this review article to look at the various management options for choledocholithiasis.
