[Surgical treatment of lithiasis of the common bile duct: our experience].
On the basis of their personal experience of biliary pathology, the authors present their opinion of surgical treatment of benign diseases of the common bile duct. From 1980 to 1988 a total of 930 patients were assessed, 140 of whom were affected by choledocholithiasis. Data confirmed that, with the exception of choledochotomy as a direct approach for removing stones, good results were achieved using papillosphincterotomy, since this technique best restores the physiology of the biliary tract. In cases where common duct dilation exceeded 20 mm or where the patient was in poor clinical condition, bile was drained into the gut forming a side-to-side choledochoduodenostomy.
