| Popis: | Several techniques are available today to access the bile ducts, all equally safe and effective. Since 1990, we have studied three groups of patients treated with different methods: the sequential endoscopic sphincterotomy + laparoscopic cholecystectomy, the single-stage laparoscopic approach, and the single laparoscopic-endoscopic approach. The results obtained in 127 patients to date suggest that one single-stage treatment is more convenient for the patient, while the combination of endoscopic sphincterotomy with laparoscopic cholecystectomy is preferable in terms of efficacy and safety. |
