Abstract
The use of limited endoscopic sphincterotomy with large balloon dilation (ESLBD) has recently been shown to be useful for removal of large common bile duct stones in a dilated bile duct. The technique can reduce the need of mechanical lithotripsy, risk of adverse events and costs of the procedure. The aim of the review is to provide an overview in the current status of ESLBD with particular focus on the technical aspects of the technique for bile duct stone removal.
