Five patients with choledocholithiasis refractory to standard extraction methods after endoscopic sphineterotomy underwent peroral cholangioscopy with the "mother-daughter" endoscopy system. Electrohydraulic lithotripsy of nine stones was performed successfully and without complication, other than minor transient bleeding in one patient. The outer sheath of the ''daughter scope" sustained a linear burn in one instance. This method of stone fragmentation is a useful adjunct to achieve ductal clearance in difficult cases.
