NCT03536247 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 90

Last updated 2022-06-15

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Our aim is to compare the efficacy, safety, procedural time required, and costs of a strategy initially employing cholangioscopy guided intraductal lithotripsy (laser/electrohydraulic lithtripsy (EHL)) versus a strategy initially using papillary dilation for removal of large bile duct stones.

Conditions

  • Choledocholithiasis

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Initial therapy with papillary balloon dilation

patients will first undergo papillary dilation

PROCEDURE

Initial therapy with intraductal lithotripsy

patients will first undergo intraductal laser or electrohydraulic lithrotripsy
