[Treatment of lithiasis of the common bile duct].
The aim of this review is to explain the multidisciplinary conception of the treatment of stones of the common bile duct in terms of the various techniques available. Treatment is designed to decrease mortality and morbidity, particularly acute complications in elderly or high risk subjects. A rational tactic determined dispassionately by common sense constitutes the best chance of preventing complications.
